Abstract

Monoclonal antibodies, and cell lines producing them, which show specificity for surface components of Haemophilus influenzae type b have been developed. These monoclonal antibodies may be used in methods and kits for detecting H. influenzae type b and antigens of H. influenzae type b and for purification of outer membrane protein to be used as vaccine.
