Abstract

Chicken kidney (CK) cells have been widely utilized in virus research studies for many years. The optimized technique of primary CK cell culture production involving both mechanical and enzymatic disaggregation is described. This updated method proved to consistently give high cell yields and resultant cultures are readily used for virus assays.
