Market Overview

Polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) are a complex mixture of several antibodies that are generally formed by different B-cell clones of an animal. These antibodies can generate homogeneous lattices with monomeric protein antigens because each antibody can integrate with a definite epitope on the antigen. It serves as a benefit because of its epitope-binding properties. Replicate immunization of an animal with a selected antigen is needed for polyclonal antibody development. Antibodies are often manufactured by inoculating a suitable mammal with a virus, like a rabbit, mouse, or goat. Larger mammals are usually preferred because they can collect a larger amount of serum. The antigen is injected into the mammal, which produces B cells to generate immunoglobulin G (IgG) that is specific for that antigen. They are broadly used in research and diagnostic applications because of their originality and specificity. Polyclonal antibodies are generally useful in cases where the antigen is changeable or complex, like viral infections or cancer biomarkers. They are also relatively easy to generate and more affordable compared to monoclonal antibodies. The global polyclonal antibody market has the potential for strong growth. Research and development investment into life science research and the diagnosis of disease are the major drivers as polyclonal antibodies continue to be a reproving research tool.
