Monoclonal antibody 2.36.71.41 produced to human haptoglobin forms precipitates with goat haptoglobin in double immunodiffusion and electroimmunodiffusion. 2. Solid-phase immunoenzymatic assay (ELISA) based on the reaction of the monoclonal antibody 2.36.71.41 with goat haptoglobin can be used for quantitative estimation of haptoglobin content in goat sera. 3. The minimum detectable concentration of goat haptoglobin is 0.03 micrograms/ml.
