title: Establishment of hybridoma secreting human monoclonal antibody against hepatitis B virus surface antigen.
abstract: The HAT (hypoxanthine, aminopterin, thymidine) sensitive and ouabain resistant human B lymphoblastoid cell line TAW-925 was obtained from 6-thioguanine resistant B lymphoblastoid cell line WI-L2. Hybridomas were obtained at a high frequency (10(-4)-10(-5) when TAW-925 was hybridized with cells transformed with Epstein-Barr virus. Using TAW-925 as a parental cell line, we have obtained a hybridoma which stably secretes human monoclonal antibody against hepatitis B virus surface antigen.
