“…Traditionally, the discovery of mAbs derived from hyperimmunized animal models has relied on immortalization of the antibody‐secreting cell (ASC) via hybridoma technology (Akagi, Nakajima, Tanaka, & Kurihara, ; Basalp & Yucel, ; Y. Chen et al, ; Kohler & Milstein, ; Li et al, ), viral immortalization of the B cell directly (Kwakkenbos et al, ; Traggiai et al, ), or phage and yeast display of antibody fragments derived from cloning of the antigen‐experienced B cell mRNA repertoires (Chan, Lim, MacAry, & Hanson, ; Dong, Bo, Zhang, Feng, & Liu, ; Feldhaus & Siegel, ; Glumac et al, ; Grzeschik et al, ; Scholler, ). Although these methods are well validated for both drug discovery and reagent antibody generation, commercial‐scale application requires significant laboratory infrastructure, large‐scale plate‐based aseptic liquid handling automation platforms, and lengthy workflows dependent on mitotic doubling times to generate antibodies with commercial value.…”
