Antibodies are blood proteins that kill cellular intruders (disease) - [1]
How do you culture antibodies? Via hybridomas - [2]

Approaches

GigaGen - [3] - uses single-cell sequencing to “capture and recreate” whole libraries of antibodies from recovered COVID-19 patients. The company can then choose which of those antibodies to turn into recombinant polyclonal antibody treatments

Definitions

Antigen. [4] - ex: a virus.
Recombinant DNA - genetic engineering of DNA that does not yet exist in nature - [5]
