DEFINITION

Classification: 530/389.1

Polyclonal antibody or immunoglobulin of identified binding specificity:

(under subclass 387.1) Subject matter involving a polyclonal antibody or immunoglobulin or antigen-binding fragment thereof whose binding specificity is disclosed.

(1) Note. "Binding specificity" refers to the antigen or antigenic determinant that will combine with the antigen-binding site(s) of a polyclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment(s) thereof; i.e., a polyclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof may have binding specificity for an animal cell, etc.
