Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome When you think of your body attacking itself‚ what comes to mind? Many people have a hard time understanding how your own body would attack itself and how it would do it. Your immune system plays a big role in your everyday life to help protect you from the outside world to prevent you from getting infected with any living bacteria or virus. Your body is capable of producing and breaking down many things‚ but it’s also capable of destroying itself with autoimmune

Antibodies Antibodies play a pivotal role in life as they serve the purpose of patrolling through the bodies systems daily to fight against invading pathogens that cause diseases and infection. These molecules are an essential part of the immune system as they are both the markers and signals in notifying other components of the immune system to destroy the pathogenic threat. Antibodies have also become something much more as they have helped in the advancement in the fields of biological research

(Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbant Assay) ELISA is abbreviated term for Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbant Assay. This procedure is one of the most widely used methods in clinical immunology assays to detect the presence and absence of certain antigens or antibodies and also to quantify them when necessary. Quantification can be done in a range of microgram (µg) to nanogram (ng). The ELISA procedure takes advantage of the fact that most proteins will bind firmly to the surface of different kinds of plastic

Functions and graphing functions Basics: A function is a rule that changes input into output A relation is any set of ordered pairs A function is defined as a set of ordered pairs in which no two ordered pairs have the same element A function must give exactly one unique output for each input Also called a mapping or simply a map The set of input numbers is called the domain The set of output numbers is called the range The set of all possible outputs is called the co-domain The range is generally

M. Velas FUNCTIONS OF LEISURE Relation to Increased Production and Consumption The function of leisure is largely determined by the kind and amount of free time and by the ideas of the age. When spare time consists of short breaks between long periods of sustained labor‚ its function is thought of as recreation – relaxing the worker so that he can work more efficiency after the break. When the goals are efficiency of work‚ increased production‚ more power and more wealth‚ the function of leisure

1. Explain what clonal selection theory is and its role in humoral or antibody-mediated immunity. Clonal selection theory is a rationalization for the growth of lymphocyte specificity and diversity during immune development. This theory demonstrates how immunological memory can deliver a fast reaction when coming into contact with an antigen that has been seen for the second time. Specifically‚ the clonal selection theory is based on the concept that premature‚ undifferentiated lymphocytes in the
