question about virus infection (MOI)

[Ying Wu]

Hi, I am doing baculovirus infection and expression system. When I infect
insect cell with virus at different MOI, unexpectedly, I found the higher moi,
the higher viability of the insect cells. Those cells are supposed to get
good expression at lower moi for particular gene that the virus carried,
and then lyse. Do you have any information about relationship between MOI
and baculovirus infected insect cells?
