Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies against ochratoxin B.

چکیده
Monoclonal antibodies against ochratoxin B (OTB) were generated by immunizing Balb/c mice with OTB conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) via carbodiimide reactions with CHMC and EDAC. A stable hybridoma cell line 2F1.E10 was produced by fusion of murine splenocytes and myeloma cells. The obtained antibodies were characterized using an indirect competitive ELISA. The detection limit was calculated (27+/-2 nM OTB) and 50% binding inhibition was reached at 500 nM free OTB. A low cross-reactivity to ochratoxin A (OTA) of 3.3% and no cross-reactivities to either coumarin or DL-phenylalanine were observed, suggesting a highly specific OTB antibody. The antibody type was identified as IgG class 1 with the light chain being of the kappa configuration. These antibodies can be used in an indirect competitive ELISA to detect OTB in the nanomolar to micromolar concentration range and may be useful for the analysis of contaminated food items.

Production and Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies against Brucella abortus S (99) Surface Antigens
By immunizing mice with killed whole bacterial cells of Brucella abortus S (99), a panel of six hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies (mAb) specific for the surface antigens of this bacterium were produced. ELISA was used to screen the hybridoma supernatants. Immunoblots of the cell extract indicated that three mAb were specific for S-LPS (Ba-1, Ba-2, Ba-3) and three others were reactive w...

متن کاملProduction, Purification and Characterization of Chicken Egg Yolk Monoclonal Antibody Against Colonization factor antigen -1 of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli Causing Diarrhea
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causes diarrhea in both humans and animals. The contaminated food and water are the most common vehicles for ETEC infection. The colonization factor antigen (CFA-1) is a fimbriae protein that promotes adherence of the ETEC strain to the epithelium of the small intestine of the host. In this study IgY proteins were produced against the CFA-1 of ETEC in imm...

The production of murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) has not yet been reported in Iran. The present work describes for the first time the generation of several murine hybridoma clones secreting MAbs directed against human leukocyte surface antigens. The secreted antibodies by hybridoma clones have been screened on different lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues. Results indicated that of seven h...
