Abstract
⺠HBsAg particles undergo subtle structural changes for epitope evolution via disulfide formation/isomerization. ⺠Surface plasmon resonance measurement enabled real time monitoring of antigenicity development. ⺠A neutralizing monoclonal antibody functions as a sensitive structural/functional probe. ⺠Epitope evolution of HBsAg seems to be free radical mediated and can be facilitated by redox buffer.
