A hybridoma cell line of secreting cyproheptadine monoclonal antibodies with a preservation number of CGMCC No. 14699 belongs to the field of food safety immunological detection. BALB/c mice are immunized through one time immunization with complete freund's adjuvant, three times of booster immunization with incomplete freund's adjuvant and one time of rush immunization with cyproheptadine complete antigen without adjuvant; the spleen cells from BALB/C mice immunized with high potency and low value of IC50 are fused with murine myeloma cells; and then the hybridoma cell line is obtained through indirect competitive ELISA screening and three sub-clones. The monoclonal antibody secreted by this cell line has good specificity and detection sensitivity to cyproheptadine (value of IC50 is 0.37 ng/ml), being suitable for detection of cyproheptadine in food.

Immunostimulatory fusion molecules that include an immune cell targeting moiety and a cytokine molecule, pharmaceutical and formulations thereof, and methods of using and making the same, are disclosed.

The present invention provides compositions, systems, kits, and methods for combining a. single myeloma cell and a single B-cell (e.g., from an animal exposed to a desired antigen) via discrete entity (e.g., droplet) microfluidics. In certain embodiments, a microfluidic device is used to merge a discrete entity containing a B-cell, and a discrete entity containing a myeloma cell, and a discrete entity containing gellable material, at a merger region via a trapping element in order to generate a combined discrete entity. In further embodiments, the combined discrete entity is treated such that a gelled discrete entity is formed.

The invention is a method of preventing the generation of pink color during antibody manufacturing by either preventing the reduction of antibodies during manufacturing and harvest or inhibiting the conversion of cyanocobalamin (CN-Cbl) to hydroxocobalamin (HO-Cbl) during manufacturing and harvest. Replacement of white light in the cell culture media preparation and storage areas with red light inhibits the conversion of CN-Cbl to HO-Cbl. Addition of peroxides to the clarified bulk at harvest inhibits reduction of the antibody disulfide bonds.

The invention relates to an improved method for the selection of hybridoma cells from a plurality of hybridoma cells for the generation of monoclonal antibodies as well as hybridoma cells together with suitable expression vectors by means of intracellular biotinylation and the use thereof.

The present invention provides a method for efficiently inducing CD8-positive T cells by adding vitamin C to the medium in the steps of induction of the CD8-positive T cells from pluripotent stem cells. The present invention also provides a method for efficiently inducing CD8-positive T cells by performing culture in a medium supplemented with an adrenocortical hormone agent in the step of induction of the CD8-positive T cells from CD4/CD8 double-positive T cells.

The present application relates to antibodies that bind to small molecules such as cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, and analogs thereof, and immunological assays for determining the presence and/or quantifying the amount of cyclophosphamide and/or ifosfamide in a sample. By way of example, such immunological assays can be used for environmental testing.

The invention refers to a non-therapeutic method for producing antigen-specific B cells by using the adoptive cell transfer of primed B cells, especially of spleen cells including B cells of a previously immunized non-human animal and by administering an antigen of interest to a naïve non-human animal.

The present invention relates to a method to modulate the level of activation of an engineered immune cell (such as a Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell) for immunotherapy. The present invention also relates to cells obtained by the present method, preferably comprising said modulable/tunable chimeric antigen receptors for use in therapeutic or prophylactic treatment.
