Monoclonal antibodies or monoclonal antibody are identical because they are produced by a clone of specialized cells of the immune system (plamocytes). Monoclonal antibodies are widely used in biology and medicine, both as diagnostic tools and for therapeutic purposes. The production of these antibodies in-vitro is very difficult because of the short lifespan of plasma cells.

In-vivo production of these antibodies can be obtained by injecting a given antigen into the animal and then extracting it from the blood.
