A monoclonal antibody is a highly specific antibody that has been formed in a laboratory setting. It is made up of clones from a hybrid cell made from a fusion of B-cells with a tumor cell.
The acronym MAB can stand for many things. For example, in the field of biology, it stands for Monoclonal AntiBody. However, to musicians, MAB is the acronym of Michael Angelo Batio.
Medical word definition physiology
the antibody can be uncontrollable
Antibody is a noun.
Antigen is the opposite of antibody.
Monoclonal antibody
MoAb stands for "monoclonal antibody"
An agonisitic monoclonal antibody is an immunological term for a monoclonal antibody which attempts to boost the immune system in order to fight infection or cancer.
by the help of hybridoma technology. single type of B cell which is sensitized with single epitope of antigen fysed with a myeloma cell. then that fused cell produce single type of antibody....that is monoclonal antibody.....
Humira (generic name adalimumab) Is The First Human Monoclonal Antibody Approved For Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Monoclonal antibody therapy is administered through injections. How often it should be perfomed varies depending on what your doctor recommends.
Monoclonal antibody production can be seen as very valuable as it creates an insight into diagnosing in vitro anomalies. Monoclonal antibodies are derived from cloned cells and allow people to study in depth anomalies that occur in humans and in reproduction.
Polyclonal antibody recognizes several epitopes on the target protein while monoclonal antibody recognizes only single epitope. Sometimes, monoclonal antibodies are not able to precipitate the antigen because the epitope might need to be exposed on the surface of the antigen to be recognized by the antibody. Since the epitope might be hidden and it's a single epitope that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody, the propability of the antibody to reconize the epitope is lower compared with the polyclonal antibody that recognizes several epitopes on the target protein.
Xolair is marketed as omalizumab. It is a monoclonal antibody used to treat allergic conditions such as asthma and chronic idiopathic urticaria by targeting and neutralizing immunoglobulin E (IgE).
Polyclonal antibody recognizes several epitopes on the target protein while monoclonal antibody recognizes only single epitope, hence monoclonal antibodies are more specific than polyclonal antibodies. However, sometimes MAbs are not able to precipitate the antigen because the epitope might need to be exposed on the surface of the antigen to be recognized by the antibody. Since some of the epitope might be hidden and it's a single epitope that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody, the propability of the antibody to reconize the epitope is lower compared with the polyclonal antibody that recognizes several epitopes on the target protein this is the reason for the tendency of polyclonal antibodies to have cross-reaction as compared to MAbs. by Victor S Gruezo Jr
recombinant DNA technology
it can be rised according to the epitopes present in antigen that enters our body..if separate antibody is rised to each specific epitope v call it as monoclonal antibody
