This paper was submitted as journal article number 2323 by ICRISAT. abstract: Hybridomas that secreted antibodies for aflatoxin B1 were selected using two immunization protocols referred to as A and B. Protocol A is a standard immunization method and resulted in the selection of only two clones that produced monoclonal antibodies against aflatoxin B1. In protocol B a unique immunization schedule which resulted in the generation of 10 hybridomas is described. Of the 10, one antibody was highly specific to B1, four antibodies reacted equally strongly with B1, G1 and weakly with B2. Another four reacted strongly with B1 and weakly with B2 and G1. One clone reacted equally strongly with B1, G1 and B2. Interestingly all the 10 antibodies showed little or no cross-reaction with G2. date: 1999 date_type: published publication: Letters In Applied Microbiology volume: 29 number: 5 publisher: Blackwell Publishing pagerange: 284-288 id_number: JA 2323 refereed: TRUE official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1046/j.1472-765X.1999.00685.x related_url_url: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1046/j.1472-765X.1999.00685.x/pdf related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Production+and+characterization+of+monoclonal+antibodies+for+aflatoxin+B1&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on&as_sdtf=&as related_url_type: pub related_url_type: author funders: Department for International Development(DFID) citation: Devi, K T and Mayo, M A and Reddy, K L N and Delfosse, P and Reddy, G and Reddy, S V and Reddy, D V R (1999) Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies for aflatoxin B1.
