A hybridoma continuous cell line which produces a monoclonal antibody for progesterone. The antibody produced, bound to a solid-support, is used to advantage in competitive progesterone assays for example, for mammalian body fluids, particularly for milk, whereby estrus and pregnancy can be determined. The test may be performed with a kit of several reagents, test tubes and a dip-stick carrying the anti-progesterone monoclonal antibody. |
