What are Monoclonal Antibodies

Monoclonal antibodies are derived from a single B cell clone and recognize only one specific epitope on a target antigen. This characteristic endows them with high homogeneity, exceptional specificity, and minimal cross-reactivity, making them ideal for high-precision experimental and diagnostic applications. In contrast, polyclonal antibodies are produced from multiple B cell clones and target various epitopes of a single antigen. Although they exhibit broad antigen reactivity, they suffer from
