A comparison of methods for obtaining high yields of pure immunoglobulin from severely haemolysed plasma
Journal of Immunological Methods
|January 1, 1979
Abstract:
Ammonium sulphate, DEAE ion exchange chromatography, and polyethylene glycol (PEG) were compared for their ability to isolate and purify large quantities of immunoglobulins from severely haemolysed plasma. PEG, which produced the highest yield and purity, proved to be the only method which completely removed the haemoglobin.

Hybridoma Technology
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.

Immunoprecipitation
Immunoprecipitation, or IP, is a widely used technique that employs protein-antibody interactions to isolate proteins or protein complexes in their native state for studying protein-protein interactions, quaternary structures, or supramolecular complexes. Various modifications of the technique, including chromatin IP, cross-linking IP, and fluorescence IP, are commonly used.
