SummaryEosinophil, major basic protein (M BP), purified from guinea pig eosinophil granules was used to raise five monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs). Their reactivity with MBP was confirmed by immunoblotting and indirect ELISA. Two of the MoAbs were used to develop a sensitive and specific antigen capture (sandwich) ELISA for guinea pig eosinophil M BP which gives an accurate and reproducible standard curve over the range of 10‐10000 ng/ml. The specificity of the ELISA for MBP was confirmed and its suitability for testing biological samples ascertained by measurement of MBP in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and plasma from guinea pigs sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin. The ELISA was also capable of detecting MBP in culture supernatants from purified eosinophil preparations challenged with calcium ionophorein vitro. One of the monoclonal could be used to strongly and specifically stain guinea pig eosinophils in immunocytochemistry, whilst all five could be used to visualize eosinophils in suspension in BALF or peritoneal lavage fluid by flow cytometry. There was no staining of other guinea pig leucocyte types, nor crossreactivity with human eosinophils by immunocytochemistry or Row cytometr
