Immunological detection of atrazine and atrazine derivatives

Abstract

Abstract Monoclonal antibodies which are distinguished by high selectivity and affinity for atrazine and/or atrazine derivatives or for inactive atrazine metabolites and which therefore are outstandingly suitable for use in an immunoassay for the rapid and efficient detection of atrazine and/or atrazine derivatives and of inactive atrazine metabolites. Another aspect relates to hybridoma cell lines which produce said monoclonal antibodies, and immunological methods for the detection of atrazine and/or atrazine derivatives and of inactive atrazine metabolites by using said monoclonal antibodies and the assay kits which can be used within the scope of these detection methods.
