Hybridoma Screening by Antibody Capture: Flow Cytometry/FACS with Whole Cells to Detect Cell-Surface Binding

Abstract

If the antigen of interest is a cell-surface protein, flow cytometry or fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) can be used to identify hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies to these proteins. Two alternative protocols are presented here—staining in individual tubes and staining in 96-well plates.
