Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies to FITC were produced and shown to be specific for the fluorochrome. Molecular weight marker proteins labelled with FITC could be detected after SDS-PAGE and transfer onto nitrocellulose using anti-FITC followed by an anti-mouse IgG-alkaline phosphatase conjugate. The molecular weight of an antigen common to Legionella pneumophila and recognised by a monoclonal antibody could be determined accurately on a Western blot when FITC labelled markers were used as internal standards. The FITC-anti-FITC system was shown to be extremely sensitive, detecting 23.7 amol of BSA-FITC conjugate (equivalent to 1.42 x 10(7) molecules of FITC) in a dot blot assay.Entities:
