Pooled human serum globulin is antibodies (or antitoxins) found in our blood. When administered to a patient after exposure to Hepatitis A it is a type of Artificially acquired passive immunity.
A high globulin count is caused by chronic infections, chronic inflammation as in rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune syndromes such as lupus, multiple myeloma and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, reports Patient. Liver cirrhosis and nephrotic syndrome can cause an elevated globulin serum ratio by decreasing serum albumin levels
a slightly low serum globulin probably has no significance, say 1.9 (where the low end of normal range is 2.2 or 2.3) unless associated with some other disease, such as kidney nephrosis or liver disease.
Serum sickness is a type of delayed allergic response, appearing four to 10 days after exposure to some antibiotics or antiserum, the portion of serum that contains antibodies, such as gamma globulin.

Passive immunity. Active immunity is when antibody is produced after being infected by a disease.
The ratio of albumin to globulin in blood serum, plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, or urine. Albumin-globulin=AG ratio. Normal adult ranges are as follows: Albumin is 3.5-5; Globulin is 2.6-4.6 which makes the normal range for the ratio 0.8-2.0.
serum glucose 123 to high?
possible infection
You can't. The best you can do it give injections of gamma globulin, the serum (blood) protein fraction that contains antibodies and so helps to fight infection.
