Single B Cell Cloning and Production of Rabbit Monoclonal Antibodies

Abstract

Monoclonal antibodies are among the most significant biological tools used in medicine and biology that have revolutionized the field of diagnostics, therapeutics, and targeted drug delivery systems for many diseases. Among them, rabbit monoclonal antibodies have attracted significant attention for having high affinity and specificity. During the past few decades, different techniques have been developed to produce monoclonal antibodies. Single B cell cloning technology offers many advantages compared to other methods and has been used to generate monoclonal antibodies from different species including rabbits. This review briefly describes some of these methods, with main focus on single B cell cloning and production of rabbit monoclonal antibodies.

Keywords: B cell sorting; Rabbit monoclonal antibodies; Single B cell cloning.
