An improved procedure for the generation of high-avidity anti-human B blood group monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) was developed. One of them, termed 7A1-2, showed excellent qualities of titer, avidity, and intensity required for use as human B blood typing reagent. Hemagglutination inhibition studies with monosaccharides and oligosaccharides were carried out to determine the specificity of the MAb 7A1-2. These studies indicate that the antibody reacts with the immunodominant region of the antigen which is known to confer the serologic specificity of this blood group.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D000017 ABO Blood-Group System The major human blood type system which depends on the presence or absence of two antigens A and B. Type O occurs when neither A nor B is present and AB when both are present. A and B are genetic factors that determine the presence of enzymes for the synthesis of certain glycoproteins mainly in the red cell membrane.
