Abstract
A competitive immunoassay procedure for the screening of catalytic antibodi es is reported. This screening approach (Cat EIA) is a modification of the well-known Cat-ELISA technique avoiding the substrate modification step. It has been developed for a bimolecular reaction and has been tested on a hig h number of hybridoma clones. The current study explores for the first time the utility and feasibility of this method for the early detection of cata lytic antibodies. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
