Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific to a particular antigen or disease target, making them useful for both diagnostic tests and disease treatments. Additionally, they can be produced in large quantities, making them practical for widespread use. However, they do not contain a mixture of antibodies as they are designed to target a single antigen or disease target.
