[The isolation and characteristics of hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies to the structural proteins of the Vnukovo-32 strain of the rabies virus].

A series of hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies (MCA) to glycoprotein and nucleocapsid proteins of rabies virus strain Vnukovo-32 was selected as a result of fusion of splenocytes from immune BALB/c mice with cells of myeloma line Sp2/OAq14, screening and cloning by limiting dilution methods in semi-liquid agar. Four hybridomas secreted MCA to glycoprotein in high titres (5.0 x 10(5)-2.2 x 10(6)) and had marked virus-neutralizing and therapeutic properties. Eight hybridomas produced MCA to the nucleocapsid complex: five hybridomas secreted MCA of the G class in high titres (2.4 x 10(5)-1.6 x 10(6)) and three hybridomas secreted MCA of the M class in low titres.
