What are chemicals produced by the body that attack invading germs?

Enzymes in body fluids provide a chemical barrier to pathogens. Gastric juice, for example, contains the protein-splitting enzyme pepsin and has a low pH due to hydrochloric acid in the stomach. The combined effect of pepsin and hydrochloric acid kills many pathogens that enter the stomach. Similarly, tears contain the enzyme lysozyme, which destroys certain bacteria on the eyes. The accumulation of salt from perspiration also kills certain bacteria on the skin.

What happens to solid egg white when pepsin and NaOH added?

Hey, I'm still a student, so I cannot guarantee that my answer is entirely correct, however, this is what my answer was on a similar question in a matsec paper: > Since pepsin is an enzyme, which works best in acidic environment, such as the one provided i the stomach, no change/ reaction would be observed, because NaOH is an alkaline solution. Therefore, pepsin would not be able to work in an environment with such great pH difference to its optimum. I hope that helped somehow although my answer is probably very late :P Good luck, Angelina
