In the original paper, Li and co-workers [ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2022, 14, 17128-17141] described their approach to select specific hybridoma cells from a polyclonal hybridoma pool by using a cell surface anchor to catch the secreted antibody. The antigen-specific detection was performed with streptavidin-labeled antigen and a PE-labeled anti-F(ab')2 antibody. The present comment offers a clearer description of the selection system originally published by Listek et al. in 2020 and provides further information about the importance of controls and recent adaptations made by our lab.
