(A) seeming unlimited number of antibodies, each specifically targeted at - "targeted specifically" is more appropriate.
(B) seeming unlimited number of antibodies, each targeted specifically to -Use of "at" is more appropriate.
(C) seeming unlimited number of antibodies, all specifically targeted at
(D) seemingly unlimited number of antibodies, all of them targeted specifically to -Use of "at" is more appropriate.
(E) seemingly unlimited number of antibodies, each targeted specifically at - Laying emphasis on the word "targeted"-Appropriate

it would be "each"
Use of only-"all" is not suited .
Thats why the new option is not suited.
In option 4,if in the end it was "at",then it would have been a close call.
