Can kidneys release antibodies?
No, Kidneys only filter waste from the blood. Antibodies are made by special kinds of white blood cells to.
What is the condition in which antibodies protect a person from disease?
Antibodies protect people from disease because they are special defenders designed to fight a particular virus. Vaccines introduce small amounts of the virus into the body so it can build up antibodies against the disease.
How do antibodies provide confirmation of the presence of measles virus?
Once the fluorescent antibodies have attached themselves to the measles antigens in the specimen, the specimen can be viewed under a special microscope to verify the presence of measles virus.
To what do antibodies respond?
Antibodies are secreted by a special group of white blood cells called lymphocytes. Each type of cell (including bacteria) has a unique protein on its cell membrane - an antigen. If a lymphocyte does not recognise a particular antigen, it will assume that the cell (or bacterium) is foreign and hostile. This is what antibodies respond to - the stimulus as the result of an unfamiliar cell. The antibodies attach to the antigens and kill the cell, or bacterium.
How are monoclonal antibodies used in home pregnancy kits?
During pregnancy a hormone called HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin is release,this hormone is detected by a special chemical called Monoclonal antibodies what this monoclonal antibodies does is attaches itself to the to the HCG hormone forming a colored band which indicates whether or not a woman is pregnant.
What are antibodies?
Antibodies are special immune system cells that are matched to a specific virus. Once they attach to the virus, it is neutralized as a threat. Your body has to learn how to make antibodies for each virus it encounters, that is what vaccines are used for.
What do vaccines stimulate production of?
Vaccines stimulate production of antibodies.
What does the human immune system produced that is the basis for immunization?
Antibodies
What are proteins that are made by cells to help destroy disease causing bacteria and viruses?
Antibodies are proteins produced by cells to target and destroy disease-causing bacteria and viruses in the body. They work by recognizing specific foreign invaders and signaling the immune system to attack and eliminate them.
Do T-cells make antibodies?
No they do not. B cells synthesize the antibodies.
Which are special molecules of protein produced by the immune system that match parts of pathogens and prevent them from infecting cells?
Antibodies are special molecules of protein produced by the immune system that match parts of pathogens and prevent them from infecting cells.
Where are antibodies made?
Antibodies are made in the lymph nodes.
