title: [The use of monoclonal antibodies in animal production].
abstract: Diagnostics in animal production is an important field for application of monoclonal antibodies (MCAs). Representative examples are discussed. MCAs can also be used to influence physiological processes with regard to optimization of growth, reproduction, etc., although there are some limiting factors in this area. Finally MCAs may contribute to fundamental research directed toward application in agriculture.
