  • Heterohybridoma screening method
    Patent number: 4842998
    Abstract: Human-nonhuman heterohybridomas capable of expressing IgM type antibodies can be screened to select hybridomas expressing IgM antibodies comprising human J chain components. Method comprises contacting separate samples of IgM antibodies (or IgM J chain components) from a given cell line with anti-human J chain antibodies and anti-non-human J chain antibodies to determine which antibody complexes with the J chain component of the samples, thereby identifying and permitting the early selection of a heterohybridoma expressing IgM having a human J chain component.
