[Isolation and characteristics of monoclonal antibodies to influenza virus types A and B]
Monoclonal antibodies (MCA) to influenza type A (10F) and B (5H and 6H) viruses have been prepared. By immunoblotting method, MCA 10F were found to be specific for NP-protein of influenza A virus, and MCA 5H and 6H to be specific for hemagglutinin of influenza B virus. It was established that the 10F clone interacted with all the investigated influenza A virus strains with different antigenic formulae (H1N1, H2N2, H3N2) and could be used for typing of this virus type. Clones 5H and 6H react specifically with hemagglutinins of influenza B viruses isolated in 1940, 1979, and 1983 which makes them useful for diagnosis of influenza B.
