    Evidence is presented that hybridomas maintained in serum-free medium continue to secrete antibodies for some time. The dynamics of this secretion appears to be close to that in analogous cultures kept in the serum medium but apparently differs from that in analogous cultures grown in the balanced salt solution. The possibility of hybridomas to synthesize antibodies in protein free medium and not only to release those formerly synthesized is under discussion.

    Antibody Structure

    Overview
    Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins (Ig), are essential players of the adaptive immune system. These antigen-binding proteins are produced by B cells and make up 20 percent of the total blood plasma by weight. In mammals, antibodies fall into five different classes, which each elicits a different biological response upon antigen binding.

    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.
