    Ancylostoma species are parasitic nematodes that release a multitude of proteins to manipulate host immune responses to facilitate their survival. Among the released proteins, Ancylostoma-secreted protein 5 (ASP5) plays a pivotal role in mediating host-parasite interactions, making it a promising target for interventions against canine hookworm infections caused by Ancylostoma species. Antibody phage display, a widely used method for generating human monoclonal antibodies was employed in this study. A bacterial expression system was used to produce ASP5 for biopanning. A single-chain fragment variable (scFv) monoclonal antibody against ASP5 was generated from the naïve Human AntibodY LibrarY (HAYLY). The resulting scFv antibody was characterized to elucidate its antigen-binding properties. The identified monoclonal antibody showed good specificity and binding characteristics which highlighting its potential for diagnostic applications in combating hookworm infections.
