Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies are monospecific antibodies. They are generated also by hybridoma technology. They are useful in target specific therapy against dangerous diseases. This property of monoclonal antibody offers us a new h ope to combat deadly diseases where chemotherapy fails to produce specific treatment without adverse effects. This review article deals with the use o f monoclonal antibodies specific against tumors and viral infections.
