Description
Description: Derived from the kidney of an apparently normal, adult Bos taurus. Also known as MDBK (NBL-1). The Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus (BVDV) status of this cell line was previously described as negative. Results of recent multiple molecular tests for BVDV that were undertaken by two independent testing laboratories were equivocal. This means that we cannot confirm the BVDV status of this cell line.
