Abstract
A high-affinity anti-tenanus toroid (TT) human monoclonal antibody sho wing neutralizing activity was isolated from a fusion between mouse my eloma and human splenic cells. Fab fragments from this antibody were o btained using a recombinant phage surface-display expression system. T he parental antibody and the corresponding Fab had identical immunolog ical activities, including specificity and affinity. These results con firm the feasibility of developing Escherichia coli expression of mono clonal human Fab from hybridoma cells.
