Antibody |
Protein produced by the immune system toidentify and neutralize foreign objects |
|
Antigen |
Any substance capable of eliciting an adaptive immune response (production of a Ab) |
|
Monoclonal Antibody |
Antibodies secreted from a SINGLE B-Cell, has identical PARATOPES |
|
Paratope |
Region of the antibody that binds the epitope (hypervariable region/Complementarity determining region/CDR) |
|
Epitope |
Antigen Binding site |
|
Hybridoma (creation and use) |
1.) Spleen cells from mouse immunized w/ antigen = B cells formed 2.) B cells and Myeloma cells combined in PEG w/ HAT culture medium 3.) Hybridomas removed, purified and ensured the produce correct Ab 4.) Hybridoma cultured to grow MAb |
