>  Is there no way to grow Nosema in culture?

This has been a problem for researchers.
As far as I know, it must be grown in living cells.  In this case, gut
cells of bees or other insects.
Cell culture is more difficult than the simple bioassay.
Besides, it is the bioassay in live bees that we are really interested in.
