Monoclonal antiboby specifically reactive to a human growth hormone with a molecular weight of about 20,000 for use in an immunoassay

摘要

A monoclonal antibody specifically reactive to a human growth hormone with a molecular weight of about 20,000, a cell line capable of producing the monoclonal antibody and an immunoassay of a human growth hormone having a molecular weight of about 20,000 using the monoclonal antibody.;An animal cell capable of producing an antibody specific to a human growth hormone having a molecular weight of 20,000 (20k hGH) was prepared from an animal immunized with 20k hGH. The animal cell was fused with a myeloma cell to produce a monoclonal antibody which specifically reacted to 20k hGH, but substantially not to 22k hGH. The monoclonal antibody was useful for immunoassay of 20k hGH.
