Summary: | Provided herein, inter alia, is a method for producing an enriched population of antigen-specific plasma cells. In some embodiments, the method may comprise: (a) obtaining a sample of cells from an animal that has been immunized by an antigen, wherein the sample comprises B cells; (b) enriching for a population of antigen-specific B cells that comprise cell surface antibodies that are specific for the antigen by: i. contacting at least 105 of the cells in said sample, en masse, with the antigen or a portion thereof; and ii. isolating cells that bind to the antigen or portion thereof; and (c) activating the enriched B cells, en masse, in the presence of the antigen or portion thereof, to produce the enriched population of antigen-specific plasma cells. |
