Abstract

The ratio of hapten and bovine serum albumin in an antigen conjugate was determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry. A hybridoma secreting monoclonal antibody against ginsenoside Rb1 was produced by fusing splenocytes immunized with a ginsenoside Rb1- bovine serum albumin conjugate with HAT-sensitive mouse myeloma cell line, P3-X63-Ag8-653. A very small cross-reaction appeared with ginsenoside Rc and ginsenoside Rd. The full measuring range of the assay extends from 20 ngml-1 to 400 ngml-1 of ginsenoside Rb1.
