title: Inhibition of cytotoxicity for screening a monoclonal antibody to HLA antigen. Preparation of a highly specific monoclonal antibody to HLA-A2 antigen.
abstract: Cytotoxicity inhibition assay was established for the screening of a monoclonal antibody to HLA antigen. The assay involved the inhibition of typing cells with hybridoma culture supernatant and with F(ab')2 fragment of sheep anti-mouse IgG. Using the assay and the conventional microcytotoxicity test, an anti-HLA-A2 monoclonal antibody was screened.
