title: Isolation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specific for fibrinogen and fibrin of human origin.
abstract: A hybridoma cell line secreting a monoclonal antibody directed against human fibrinogen has been isolated. The antigenic determinant recognized is present on both the fibrinogen and fibrin molecules but is apparently absent from the D and E fragments and from fibrinopeptides A and B. The antibody seems to recognize a conformational structure present in native fibrinogen and in which several or possibly all the fibrinogen polypeptide chains may participate.
