Mouse monoclonal antibodies against paraoxon: potential reagents for immunoassay with constant immunochemical characteristics

Mice were immunized with (p-aminophenyl)paraoxon conjugated to protein by diazotization. The production and isolation of permanent hybridoma cell lines from the splenic lymphocytes of the immunized animals are described. The specificity of the two resultant paraoxon-specific monoclonal antibodies wa...

Description
Summary:Mice were immunized with (p-aminophenyl)paraoxon conjugated to protein by diazotization. The production and isolation of permanent hybridoma cell lines from the splenic lymphocytes of the immunized animals are described. The specificity of the two resultant paraoxon-specific monoclonal antibodies was tested with paraoxon analogues and seven insecticides. Significant cross reactivity was found with parathion and (p-aminophenyl)paraoxon, while no interfering compounds were found among the other insecticides tested. The affinities of the monoclonal antibodies were determined to be 9.4 x 10 super(4) and 1.7 x 10 super(5) L/mol. Specificity determinations proved the antibodies to be chemically unique.
