Abstract

Cockroach antigen have been known as a cause of allergic disease. German ockroach(Blattella germanica L.) was chosen because it has the highest distribution range and poulation density. To identify the common and specific antigens of adult and larval stage of german cockroach, we made monoclonal antibodies which were confirmen by SDS-PAGE and EITB. Anti-B. germanica antibody producing hybridomas were 24 among the total 960wells. Only 4 hybridomas did not have cross reaction to other species of cockroach and hluse dust mites(Dermatophagodies farinae and D. pteronyssius). SDS-PAGE revealed about 20 bands from 90Kd to 15Kd to 15Kd. ETB showed specific antigens a6 60, 72 and 82Kd which were experimented by the culture supernatant of 4 selected hybridomas. Especially 60Kd coincided with a band of immunized mouse sera.
