A mouse monoclonal antibody is a type of antibody produced by a single clone of immune cells derived from mice. After immunization, antibody-secreting B cells are immortalized by fusion to myeloma cell lines, and the resultant hybridomas are screened using a client-directed customizable protocol to select for the desired antigen-specific antibody. Mouse immunization and spleen fusion to create hybridoma cell lines are two phases of an entire procedure for developing, producing, and purifying monoclonal antibodies.
Abvigen's custom mouse monoclonal antibody development service provides a comprehensive solution for generating high-quality monoclonal antibodies against any target of interest. The service includes immunogen design and synthesis, immunization, hybridoma generation, screening, and antibody production.
We perform and report in-process ELISA testing and send samples to customers for evaluation, allowing customers to select which animals to use for fusion and which cell lines to subclone, expand, and deliver.
