Abstract |
Monoclonal antibody to progesterone was produced using the antigen $11{alpha}$-hydroxyprogesterone hemisuccinate conjugated to bovine serum albumin. Hybridomas secreting antibody to progesterone were detected by radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and cloned in soft agar. Two stable monoclonal antibodies which were highly specific to progesterone were obtained, so it may be advantageously used to study on several physiological functions of progesterone including immunological research. |
