title: Production of monoclonal antibodies for the detection of chemically modified DNA.
abstract: Monoclonal antibodies that are specific for sites of base modification in DNA have a number of applications in, for example, studies of carcinogenesis, drug action, or DNA repair (1). The production of antibodies of the appropriate specificity entails practical considerations that are specific to this type of antigen.
