| Abstract: | Spleen cells of Biozzi HL mouse (selection V) immunized with bovine albumin-triiodothyronine conjugate were fused with P3-X63-Ag8.653 mouse myeloma cells. Thirteen monoclonal antibodies, selected by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and a radioimmunoassay, were produced in mouse ascites fluid, purified and analyzed. All of them were IgG1 (kappa). The cross-reactivity of all these monoclonal antibodies with thyroxine (T4) was less than 0.2%. The association constant determined by Scatchard analysis ranged from 1.5 x 10(9) M-1 to 2.7 x 10(10) M-1. |
