Download or read book Reactions of Antibodies with Soluble Antigens written by Curtis A. Williams and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods in Immunology and Immunochemistry, Volume III: Reactions of Antibodies with Soluble Antigens provides information pertinent to antigen–antibody and hapten–antibody reactions in vitro, in free solution and in gels. This book presents the development of research in immunology and immunochemistry. Organized into three chapters, this volume begins with an overview of protein–antiprotein reactions. This text then discusses the inhibitory activity of protein fragments, which suggested that antigenic combining sites of proteins were limited regions of the whole antigen molecule. Other chapters consider the measurement of inhibitory activity, which is still the principal assay to characterize antigenic sites of proteins. This book discusses as well the immunological techniques prior to the development of gel-diffusion methods. The final chapter deals with fluorescence labeling techniques that provide powerful approaches for exploring the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of antigen–antibody interactions. This book is a valuable resource for mathematicians and immunologists.

Download or read book Methods in Immunology and Immunochemistry written by Curtis Williams and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods in Immunology and Immunochemistry, Volume I: Preparation of Antigens and Antibodies is aimed to bring together detailed procedures in the preparation of antigens and antibodies. The text also provides a presentation and discussion of these methods. The book covers topics in immunology such as antigens, its kinds, and the preparation and testing of lipids for immunological study. The production of antiserum; the preparation of immunogens; collecting and handling of serum; and immunization procedures are also explained. The book also discusses the purification of antibodies; methods of labeling antigens and antibodies; and the methods used in the studies of the structure of immunoglobulins. The text is recommended for immunologists who would like to know the different procedures and methods involved in immunology as well as the principles behind it. The book will also serve as a guide for medical staff who prepare products related to immunology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methods in Immunology: Volume II, Physical and Chemical Methods is a collection of papers dealing with electrophoresis, analytical ultracentrifugation, dialysis, ultrafiltration, cellulose ion exchangers, and chromatographic separation of macromolecules on porous gels. Some papers explain the applications of radioisotopes, optical analysis, and chemical analysis of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acid. One paper describes the theory of electro-migration. Factors such as electrical charge or frictional coefficients govern the rate of migration of charged particles in an electric field. The differences found in their velocities can be used to separate substances or analyze them. Mobility is a characteristic property of molecules and can also be influenced by the composition of the medium or solution. Dialysis separates solvents too large to diffuse through a barrier from smaller solutes; ultrafiltration (reverse osmosis) forces solvent and solutes up to a certain critical size through the barrier by a high pressure on one side. The book notes that the membrane never becomes plugged in dialysis because of some opposite movement of the solvent. Another paper points out that the significance of radioactive tracers in immunochemistry employed to identify and label macromolecules functioning as antigens and antibodies. The collection can prove valuable to bio-chemists, cellular biologists, micro-biologists, developmental biologists, and scientists involved in immunological research.

Download or read book Immunochemistry Methods written by Tamara Krstic and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-18 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Immunochemistry methods consists of three main chapters (Introduction, Production of antigens and antibodies and Immunological tests). Each of three chapters has corresponding sub-continent. Introduction provides a brief, basic overview of the main components of the immune system. It gives a good basis for the display of techniques used in immunohistochemistry. Chapter Production of antigens and antibodies describes the sources of these components and methods for their preparation and purification, to very details. Chapter Immunological tests gives a comprehensive ilustration of reactions for identification and quantification of antigens. It also gives a brief overview of cellular immunological techniques and tests of complement. Its own experiance in the field, allows author to present these materials in comprehensive way. Theoretical definitions, descriptions of techniques and practical examples are of great importance for obtaining knowledge about the principles of immunohistochemistry. All this is illustrated by a large number of attractive and meaningful pictures, which allows the reader to visually experience all that is described.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Historical Perspective on Evidence-Based Immunology focuses on the results of hypothesis-driven, controlled scientific experiments that have led to the current understanding of immunological principles. The text helps beginning students in biomedical disciplines understand the basis of immunologic knowledge, while also helping more advanced students gain further insights. The book serves as a crucial reference for researchers studying the evolution of ideas and scientific methods, including fundamental insights on immunologic tolerance, interactions of lymphocytes with antigen TCR and BCR, the generation of diversity and mechanism of tolerance of T cells and B cells, the first cytokines, the concept of autoimmunity, the identification of NK cells as a unique cell type, the structure of antibody molecules and identification of Fab and Fc regions, and dendritic cells. Provides a complete review of the hypothesis-driven, controlled scientific experiments that have led to our current understanding of immunological principles Explains the types of experiments that were performed and how the interpretation of the experiments altered the understanding of immunology Presents concepts such as the division of lymphocytes into functionally different populations in their historical context Includes fundamental insights on immunologic tolerance, interactions of lymphocytes with antigen TCR and BCR, and the generation of diversity and mechanism of tolerance of T and B cells
Download or read book Immunoassays for the 80s written by A. Voller and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-10-15 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyses for naturally occurring biological substances or administered materials have been with us for many years. These were usually based on the physical or chemical characteristics of the substances to be measured. However in recent years there has been an explosion of interest in analytical methods which made use of the high specificity and sensitivity of im munological reactions. These methods can be very simple in terms of technical procedures and can usually be performed on minute samples of biological fluids - factors which have ensured their ready acceptance in most laboratories. Recently there have been numerous meetings on technical aspects of particular immunoassays and on their application in specific diseases. We felt however that the time was ripe for an 'overview' of the whole field. To this end a conference on 'Immunoassays for the 80s' was held at the Zoological Society of London in 1980, and this book is largely based on that meeting. Both the immunoassay techniques and their numerous applications were discussed and are dealt with at length in this volume. The editors wish to thank all the contributors for their chapters and to acknowledge the debt they owe to Jean Ryan (NLCM) without whose organization and assistance this volume would not have been completed.
