The commercial exploitation of the baculovirus expression system for heterologous protein or biopesticides production requires an efficient large-scale cultivation method. This review summarized recent developments concerning the scale-up of insect cell culture and baculovirus gene expression. We described novel bioreactor systems (stirred tank bioreactor, bioreactor airlift and cell-lift, membrane bioreactor), culture modes (batch, fed-batch, continuous) and different strategies used for cell cultivation and baculovirus replication.
