Scientists have identified and further developed novel antibody fragments from llamas and alpacas that can be used against the SARS CoV-2 virus which causes COVID-19. These "nanobodies" identified by an international team led by the University of Bonn in Germany are smaller than classic antibodies. They can penetrate the tissue better and can be produced in larger quantities.Scientists have identified and further developed novel antibody fragments from llamas and alpacas that can be used against the SARS CoV-2 virus which causes COVID-19.
