MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY TO BE SPECIFICALLY REACTED WITH COPLANAR PCB SUBSTANTIALLY NOT REDUCING ANTIGEN RECOGNITION CHARACTERISTIC EVEN IN 50 (V/V) AQUEOUS SOLUTION OF ORGANIC SOLVENT, AND ITS MEASUREMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a monoclonal antibody capable of omitting the pretreatment of extraction with an organic solvent and analyzing a coplanar PCB simply quickly in high accuracy by making the antigen recognition characteristics not lowered even in an aqueous solution of an organic solvent having a fixed concentration. ;SOLUTION: This monoclonal antibody recognizes a coplanar PCB such as 3,3,3'4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB-#77), 3,4,5,3',4'-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB-#126) or 3,4,5,3'4',5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (PCB-#169) and will not be substantially lowered in antigen recognition characteristics even in 50 (v/v)% aqueous solution of an organic solvent. A coplanar PCB existing in an aqueous solution of an organic solvent or a buffer solution not containing an organic solvent is brought into contact with the monoclonal antibody to form an antigen-antibody complex and the amount of the antigen-antibody complex formed is measured to measure the coplanar PCB.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2000,JPO
