The invention relates to a serum-
free medium used for culturing Vero cells. The serum-
free medium is composed of, by volume, 85 to 95% of a base culture solution, 2 to 5% of an
amino acid solution, 2 to 7% of a serum alternative factor solution, 0.1 to 0.5% of an
antioxidant solution, 0.8 to 2% of a
yeast extract solution, and 0.1 to 0.5% of an
ethanol amine solution. The invention also provides a preparation method of the serum-
free medium. In the preparation method, the base culture solution, the
amino acid solution, the serum alternative factor solution, the
antioxidant solution, the
yeast extract solution, and the
ethanol amine solution are mixed at the above ratio so as to obtain the serum-free medium. The serum-free medium used for culturing Vero cells is capable of promoting rapid attachment of Vero cells;
cell morphology of the Vero cells cultured with the serum-free medium can be maintainer preferably, and
cell proliferation rate is higher; the composition of the serum-free medium is simple; cost is reduced; and preparation is convenient.
