Hybridoma Screening by Antibody Capture: Dot Blot
Abstract
A dot blot is an appropriate hybridoma screening procedure when the antigen is a protein that is available in purified form. The antigen is bound directly to a nitrocellulose sheet and incubated with hybridoma tissue culture supernatant. A dot blot is widely used to determine the productivity of a given hybridoma, and this is described here. This assay can also be used to screen a fusion or subclone plate for productive hybridoma clones.
