This thesis deals with the determination of biological activity of adiponectin, a recombinant protein using cell culture. First it was important to acquire the working skills for the cell culture of cell line 3T3-L1. An optimal concentration of inactivated fetal bovine serum in cell culture media was determined. A stimulation of the cell proliferation by HB-EGF, PDGF-BB and bFGF growth factors was observed at various concentration levels. Afterwards the biological activity of adiponectin was determined as an inhibition of growth stimulation with 5 ng/ml PDGF-BB. This biological activity assay for adiponectin was also conducted with lyophilized adiponectin and a growth factor bFGF (0.1 ng/ml). The lyophilization did not affect the biological activity of adiponectin.
