Home made and foreign preparations (6 patterns in each) were tested as microcarriers for cultivation of anchorage-dependent cells in the medium supplemented with 0.25% enzymatic hydrolysate of muscles and 10-20% animal serum. The best results were obtained with microcarriers DEAE-2.5, Cytodex-1, and DEAE-cellulose. Using home microcarriers DEAE-2.5, continuous swine embryo kidney cells and primary chick embryo cells yielded, respectively, 9-11 and 3-4 times increase.
