Zusammenfassung:The present invention refers to monoclonal antibodies or fragments thereof which are binding to the protein P of the human Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) which comprise a variable region of the heavy chain which has a sequence with at least a 90%, 95% or 99% of identity with the SEQ ID No: 1 or SEQ ID 5 or a variable region of the light chain which has a sequence with at least a 90%, 95% or 99% of identity with the SEQ ID No:2 or SEQ ID No: 6. The invention provides also diagnostic methods ex vivo or in vitro for detection of the viral antigen P of RSV, in which are used the monoclonal antibodies produced and secreted by the hybridomas 2E6/D2 and 6H5/H1. The invention can be used in detection for RSV kits, comprising the antibodies produced by the mentioned hybridomas.
