The ratio of hapten and bovine serum albumin in antigen conjugate was exactly determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry. Monoclonal antibodies against thebaine and codeine were produced by hybridoma fused with the sprenocytes immunized with thebaine- and codeine-bovine serum albumin conjugate and HAT-sensitive mouse myeloma cell line, P3-X63-Ag8-653. No cross-reaction of anti-thebaine antibody against morphine was observed. Very small cross-reaction appeared in codeine (0.004%). The cross-reaction of anti-codeine antibody against morphine and thebaine was 2.97 and 5.98%, respectively. The full measuring range of the assay extends from 60 pg mL to 1 ng mL for thebaine and 1 ng mL to 100 ng mL for codeine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
