Abstract:
A dot blot is widely used to determine the productivity of a given hybridoma. This assay can also be used to screen a fusion or subclone plate for productive hybridoma clones. First, a nitrocellulose membrane is coated with an affinity-purified goat or rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulin and then incubated with hybridoma tissue culture supernatant. Monoclonal antibodies in the supernatant are then "captured" on the coated nitrocellulose membrane surface and detected by screening with horseradish peroxidase (HRP).

Hybridoma technology is used for the large-scale production of monoclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies bind to only a single antigenic determinant or epitope. Such antibodies are used in research, diagnostics, and disease therapy. The hybridoma technology established in 1975 by Georges Köhler and Cesar Milstein was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1984 for revolutionizing research and therapy.

Western blotting is an analytical technique for protein identification. It has various applications in immunology and medicine, including detecting diseases like bovine spongiform encephalopathy, mad cow disease, and human and feline immunodeficiency virus from biological samples.
The technique begins with separating proteins from the sample using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), followed by protein transfer, immunoblotting, and finally, protein detection.
