Abstract

An increasing number of recombinant-DNA-derived pharmaceuticals appear to be antigenic, and antibody formation has been shown to have a clinical effect. To study these effects, standardization of the antibody assays is essential. A contributing factor to the antigenicity of recombinant DNA pharmaceuticals may be their formulation.
