Abstract
Amatoxins (AMAs) are lethal toxins found in a variety of mushroom species. Detection methods are needed to determine the occurrence of AMAs in mushroom species, often suspected in mushroom poisonings. Provided herein are novel, sensitive monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) detection and purification techniques utilizing the mAbs that show selectivity for α-amanitin (α-AMA), β-amanitin (β-AMA) and γ-amanitin (γ-AMA).
