Recombinant monoclonal antibody to FHV-1. Manufactured using AbAb’s Recombinant Platform with variable regions (i.e. specificity) from the hybridoma JH2.
Alternative Name(s) of Target: feline herpesvirus; FHV; herpesvirus; FVR; rhinotracheitis virus; FJH2
Immunogen: This antibody was raised by immunising BALB/c mice with FHV-1-K1 particles and subsequent generation of a hybridoma.
Specificity: This antibody recognises feline herpesvirus.
Application Notes: Chimeric, felinised version of this antibody can be used in the investigation of the effective diagnostic, treating and preventing agents against FHV-1 infection. It was demnstrated that felinised form of JH2 was a succesful preventative treatment against feline FHV-1 infection; administration of the antibody 15 days before the FHV-1 infection led to a significant decrease in symptomps in these individuals (Umehashi et al., 2003).
