Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to biotin. In one embodiment the monoclonal antibody according to the invention also does not bind to a biotin moiety on a biotinylated molecule, wherein the biotin moiety is attached to the molecule via the carbon atom of the carboxyl function of the valeric acid moiety of biotin. Also disclosed is a method for generation of an antibody as disclosed herein. The monoclonal antibody according to the invention is of specific use in a method for measuring an analyte in a sample, wherein a (strept)avidin/biotin pair is used to bind a biotinylated analyte specific binding agent to a (strept)avidin coated solid phase.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1 . An immunogen of Formula: wherein KLH is a keyhole limpet hemocyanin. 2 . A method for producing an antibody, the method comprising the steps of a) immunizing an experimental animal with an immunogen according to claim 1 , thereby inducing B-cells producing antibodies binding to the immunogen, b) obtaining a monoclonal antibody binding to the immunogen produced by the B-cell of step (a), either via hybridoma technology or by B-cell PCR technology, c) further selecting the antibody of step (b) for binding to biotin thereby obtaining an antibody.
