Three monoclonal antibody subclasses (IgG1, IgG2a, and IgM) were raised to the phosphoprotein B2 (Mr 68000, pI6.5-8.2) which has been shown previously to be associated with the nucleosomes of rat liver nuclei. These antibodies do not show any significant cross reactivity with CM-cellulose ‘unbound’ non-histone chromosomal proteins, bovine serum albumin or histones. Further verification of the specificity of these antibodies to this phosphoprotein was carried out using both ‘dot’ blot and immunological transfer analysis (‘Western blot‘). The monoclonal antibodies (IgG1 and IgG2a) could also be used to semi-quantify the phosphoprotein B2 in rat liver nuclei. The high specificity and unlimited availability of this type of probe provides a means to study the role(s) of this phosphoprotein in the overall scheme of actively transcribed chromatin.

A stable hybridoma cell line (DD9) has been produced secreting a monoclonal antibody specific for porcine muscle proteins. The DD9 monoclonal antibody (mAb) failed to show a significant cross-reactivity when tested against beef, horse, chicken, and soya proteins, as well as bovine caseins, gelatin, and bovine serum albumin. The DD9 mAb was further used in an indirect ELISA format for detection of defined amounts of porcine meat (1–100%) in beef and chicken meat mixtures immobilized on 96-well plates. Immunorecognition of monoclonal antibodies adsorbed to porcine meat was made with rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulins conjugated to the enzyme horseradish peroxidase.
