Question

Monoclonal antibodies(MAB) are produced from the hybrid cells of B-lymphocytes and myeloma cells. They are used?

• A. In the preparation of vaccines
• B. As immunosuppressant's
• C. In the preparation of toxoids
• D. For the detection of DNA probes

Answer 1

The correct option is A In the preparation of vaccines

Monoclonal antibodies (mAb or moAb) are antibodies that are made by identical immune cells that are all clones of a unique parent cell. Monoclonal antibodies can have monovalent affinity, in that they bind to the same epitope. Monoclonal antibodies(MAB) are produced from the hybrid cells of B-lymphocytes and myeloma cells. They are used in the preparation of vaccines.

So, the correct option is 'in the preparation of vaccines'.
