Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies capable of binding antigenic determinants within regions of the core proteins of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus and immortalized cell lines producing those monoclonal antibodies are provided. The monoclonal antibodies find use in a variety of ways, including HIV antigen detection in biological samples. Using these methods, individuals may be identified who are infected with HIV but who have not yet developed anti-HIV antibodies. The methods also find use in monitoring in vitro growth of HIV, and the efficacy of therapeutic agents and vaccines.
