AN IN VITRO ASSAY FOR QUANTITATING SECRETED ANTIBODIES IN LYMPHOCYTE SUPERNATANT FOR EVALUATION OF VACCINE OR ANTIGEN INDUCED SPECIFIC ANTIBODY SECRETION FROM EX VIVO CIRCULATING ANTIBODY-SECRETING LYMPHOCYTES

摘要

The present invention provides methods of quantitating recent secreted antigen specific antibodies from supernatant of antibody secreting cells (ASC) in vitro culture for evaluation of vaccine or antigen induced antigen specific antibody secretion without ex vivo antigen stimulation.
