Description
Summary:Phage antibody display technology has revolutionized the field of bacterial immunodetection. This technology allows the expression of an antibody fused to the coat protein of a filamentous bacteriophage. The use of phage display makes it possible to obtain high-affinity antibodies, bypassing the stage of animal immunization, reducing the time for obtaining stable antibody-producing clones from several months to several weeks, and significantly reducing the cost of the process. These advantages make phage antibodies an important tool for bacterial detection. This paper presents a brief description of the technological methods for obtaining phage antibodies to microbial cells. The possibilities and prospects for using phage antibodies as a selective agent in analytical systems, including biosensors, are discussed.
