ABSTRACT:
The subject invention relates a method for the production of monoclonal antibodies. The method utilizes an immunized animal having antibody-producing cells with disrupted peripheral tolerance. The invention also provides a method for the use of such monoclonal antibodies, and polyclonal antibodies derived from an immunized animal having antibody-producing cells with disrupted peripheral tolerance, for in vitro and in vivo clinical diagnostics and therapeutics.
