I am trying to get a monoclonal antibody against a single transmembrane protein. I am using the Whole Cell ELISA to test the immunized mouse serum. The serum is tested against the cell with or without the protein (that was used as antigen). However I am not sure about the antibody titer. How do I know if I've got a good enough antibody in the serum, or if my ELISA results are still basic. How do I know the right moment to sacrifice my animals and go to hybridome productions?
