We report a comparative study of the MDCK, Vero, and MRC-5 cell lines in the isolation of the influenza A (IA) virus. We studied 746 samples in which 63 IA viruses were isolated. The MDCK line displayed 100% sensitivity, the Vero line displayed 71.4%, and the MRC-5 displayed 57.1%. The MDCK line showed a statistically significant difference with respect to the Vero line (P = 0.001) and the MRC-5 line (P = 0.001). The quantitative sensitivity analysis showed the MDCK line to be superior to the other lines. It seems that the MDCK line is still one of the most recommendable for the isolation of the IA virus from respiratory samples.
我们报告了一项在分离甲型流感(IA)病毒时对MDCK、Vero和MRC - 5细胞系的比较研究。我们研究了746份样本,从中分离出63株IA病毒。MDCK细胞系显示出100%的敏感性,Vero细胞系为71.4%,MRC - 5细胞系为57.1%。MDCK细胞系与Vero细胞系(P = 0.001)和MRC - 5细胞系(P = 0.001)相比显示出统计学上的显著差异。定量敏感性分析表明MDCK细胞系优于其他细胞系。看来MDCK细胞系仍是从呼吸道样本中分离IA病毒最值得推荐的细胞系之一。
