A murine lymphocyte hybridoma producing a monoclonal antibody against pollen surface antigens in the form of hazel pollen grains deposited on February 18, 2015 in the collection of Belgian coordinated collections of microorganisms under the designation of LMBP 11036CB. The monoclonal antibody is useful for detection of pollen of hazel Corylus avellana, especially for the detection of hazel pollen with damaged and denatured proteins, e.g., macro-residues of the hazel in paleobotanical findings, and can serve as the basis for the generation of a series of monoclonal antibodies against different pollen species and their detection of various substrates.
