title: A monoclonal antibody for large-scale purification of human leukocyte interferon.
abstract: A clone of hybrid myelomas (NK2), secreting a mouse monoclonal antibody to human leukocyte interferon, has been isolated. The antibody neutralizes the antiviral activity of the interferon and, when covalently attached to a solid support and used as an immunoadsorbent, allows interferon purification of up to 5,000-fold in a single step.
