title: Development of enzyme immunoassay of 2'-deoxycytidine.
abstract: In order to study 2'-deoxycytidine (2'-dCyd) as a possible prognostic marker in cancer chemotherapy, an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) was developed. 2'-dCyd as a hapten was succinylated and two omicron-monosuccinyl-2'-dCyd's were purified by high performance liquid chromatography and identified by mass spectrometry and 1H-NMR. Two antigens were prepared by conjugating two omicron-succinyl derivatives with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) as a carrier. Both antigen produced specific antibodies to 2'dCyd in BALD/c mice. The spleen cells of one mouse immunized with 5'-omicron-succinyl-2'-dCyd-KLH were hybridized with myeloma cells. One monoclone selected produced a specific antibody. A convenient EIA was attained by using the monoclonal antibody.
