Antibody isolation

Va.ria.tions in Methods. The various immunochemical methods can differ in a number of ways. For example, the analytical reagent may be cmde antisemm, monoclonal antibodies, isolated immunoglobulin fractions, etc. The conditions under which the method is mn, detection of the antigen—antibody complex, and the techniques used to increase sensitivity or specificity of the reaction all maybe varied.

Anti-glycosyl antibodies isolated from the sera of some animals immunized with bacterial carbohydrate antigens are of a restricted heterogeneity, that is, they occur in relatively few, multimolecular forms.145 146 Such antibodies have been used in studies on the structure of antibodies,147 and on the genetic regulation of synthesis of anti-...

The three antisera and the anti-glycosyl antibodies isolated from these antisera have been tested in agar diffusion tests for cross-reactivity with the three iirmunogens and with bovine serum albumin. These results are shown in Figure 8.

Immobilized cells are also used in biotechnology in the production of protein molecules. For example, entrapped hybridoma cells have been used for the production of monoclonal antibodies which are secreted into the microcapsules. This allows for easier collection of the antibodies compared to growing the hybridoma cells directly in the culture medium. The microcapsules are easily separated from the culture medium and broken to collect the antibodies. Isolation of the antibodies from the culture medium involves numerous purification steps, and product is lost during each of these steps to an extent which depends on the efficiency of the process. Live vaccines have been encapsulated. For example. Bacillus Calmette Guerin has been encapsulated in an alginate polylysine-alginate system.
