Principles of in Vitro Immunization of Human B Lymphocytes

  • Chapter
Human Hybridomas and Monoclonal Antibodies

Abstract

The development by Mishell and Dutton of a culture technique for immunization of mouse spleen cells (Mishell and Dutton, 1967) was an important advance in the study of the humoral immune response since it provided a convenient and versatile way to study cellular and subcellular events in the response.
