Abstract

Mouse hybridoma cells (O146S) producing a monoclonal antibody against the 146S antigenic particles of O type apthhoviruses were proliferated on the nonwoven polyester fabric (NWPF) discs in a stationary culture. A series of batch experiments were performed in Petri dishes containing RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum. During the cultivation period glucose and lactate concentrations were measured and monoclonal antibody concentration was determined by sandwich enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that in the presence of the NWPF discs cell viability, cell yield, and total monoclonal antibody production was higher than that of the disc-free culture.
