Abstract

A monoclonal antibody was obtained from a Balb/c mouse immunized with a conjugate prepared by the direct coupling of diazotized clenbuterol to bovine serum albumin. The antibody, characterized by γ1,κ isotype and an affinity constant of 3.5 × 108 l mol‐1, is highly specific as its cross‐reactivity to structurally related molecules is less than 1%. A competitive ELISA for the detection of clenbuterol in horse and human urine was developed using this antibody.
