Abstract
A monoclonal anti-A antibody has been evaluated and found suitable for use as a potent routine ABO grouping reagent, without the use of additives. The IgM anti-A (MH2/6D4) is secreted into the tissue culture supernatant by a permanent line of cloned cells derived by fusion of anti-A producing spleen cells and a mouse myeloma cell line. This is a cost-effective reagent which should reduce production costs by over 50%. This reagent has the advantages inherent in monoclonal antibodies among them the availability of unlimited quantities of unvarying antibody of known properties.Entities:
