Abstract
This invention relates to a monoclonal antibody having affinity to human TCF-II without any affinity to HGF and determination or purification methods of TCF-II using the antibody. The monoclonal antibody can be obtained by adding a blocking solution containing a surface active agent to the culture medium containing monoclonal antibody to block antibodies other than said monoclonal antibody, followed by reaction with a solid phase antigen, TCF-II. Human TCF-II can be selectively and effectively purified or determined without any influence of the presence of HGF by using the antibody.
