The World Health Organization (WHO) scientific working groups on the Immunology of Leprosy (IMMLEP) and Tuberculosis (IMMTUB) recently organized two international workshops designed to characterize the specificity and reaction patterns of approximately 55 murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) which had been raised against Mycobacterium leprae or Mycobacterium tuberculosis and submitted to the IMMLEP and IMMTUB monoclonal antibody banks.
