Cell lines for producing monoclonal antibodies to hepatitis virus are established by immunizing animal lymphocytes with hepatitis antigen to form antibody producing cells which then are fused with myeloma cells. The resultant somatic cell hybrids can be cloned. These clones produce monoclonal antibodies to individual antigenic determinates unique to hepatitis virus.
