Changing a measurement standard to suit an experiment depends on various factors including the nature of the experiment and the level of precision required. In some cases, it may be possible to calibrate or adjust the standard, but this can introduce errors and uncertainties. Generally, it is preferred to select an appropriate measurement standard that aligns with the experiment's requirements to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Generally there are two antibodies used. Primary antibody which can bind specifically to the protein of interest. And a secondary antibody coupled with a detection system such as HRP that would bind the primary antibody and signals the presence of protein of interest.
It is the number of antigens one antibody molecule can bind to. For example, a trivalent antibody can simultaneously bind to three copies of the antigen it recognizes. This is not related to atomic valence.
primary antibody is what binds to the specific gene that you are interested in looking at; i.e. primary is rabbit-antibody bind to its proper epitope. and this is usually unconjugated with no label. the secondary antibody is conjugated with some type of label, i.e., you will be able to see if your gene is being expressed. i.e., if primary from a rabbit, want goat-anti-rabbit, this way it can bind to the primary antibody.
A cold antibody is an antibody that reacts optimally at temperatures below body temperature, typically around 4°C. These antibodies can cause hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells) when blood is exposed to cold temperatures.
To choose the appropriate secondary antibody for your experiment, consider the primary antibody used, the species it was raised in, and the detection method. Match the secondary antibody to the species of the primary antibody and ensure it is compatible with the detection method being used. Conduct a thorough literature review and consult with colleagues or antibody suppliers for recommendations.
When choosing a secondary antibody for your experiment, consider the primary antibody you are using and select a secondary antibody that is specific to the species and isotype of the primary antibody. Additionally, ensure that the secondary antibody is compatible with the detection method you are using, such as fluorescence or enzyme-linked detection. Conducting a thorough literature review and consulting with colleagues or antibody suppliers can also help in selecting the most suitable secondary antibody for your experiment.
A red-top tube with no anticoagulant would be appropriate for collecting a blood sample for hepatitis antibody immunology testing.
Two or more precipitant bands can form in an antigen-antibody experiment due to the presence of multiple antigenic epitopes that react with different antibodies, leading to the formation of distinct immune complexes. Additionally, variations in antibody concentrations or affinities can result in the formation of different-sized complexes that precipitate at varying rates, creating multiple bands. This phenomenon may also occur if the sample contains multiple antigens that can bind to the same antibody, resulting in the formation of separate precipitate zones.
Normally, you do not choose them: you calculate them.

Antibody is a noun.
"Immunoglobulin" is the biochemical description of the proteins that are also called antibodies. Which term is used depends on the context - a lot of protein research uses antibodies to detect other proteins. If the antibody itself is being studied "immunoglobulin" may be more appropriate.
No, it is not. Antibody = A protein that fights infection.
