Monoclonal Hcg Antibody Mouse Fused Hybridoma Describe Produced

Front Describe how monoclonal antibodies to hCG are produced.
Back Producing hCG monoclonal antibodies:
  • Mouse is injected with hCG so it makes the appropriate antibody
  • B-cells that make the required antibody are then removed from the spleen of the mouse & fused with a myeloma
  • New fused cell - hybridoma
  • Each hybridoma reproduces rapidly, resulting in clone of millions of cells that produce the desired antibody
  • Monoclonal antibodies are collected, purified and used in variety of ways
