### protein | antibody:

Antitoxin
* are available in many areas where dangerous scorpions live.
* give immediate but short-term protection, acting just like antibodies.
* is an antibody

Antivenin
* are available for most pit viper envenomations.
* includes atoms.
* includes chemical chain
  - groups
* is antitoxin

Autoantibody
* Autoantibodies are anti-idiotype antibodies to antivral antibodies
  - immunoglobulins that recognize and respond to self antigens
  - present in connective tissue diseases
  - can also form
  - recognise antigens on our own cells and can cause autoimmunity
  - recognize self antigens and they can occasionally have very destructive activity
  - usually occur with no identifiable cause
* is an antibody
* known as rheumatoid factor is common in persons with rheumatoid arthritis.

Immune globulin
- currently in short supply
  - quite expensive to produce
* is recommended for persons of all ages who desire only short term protection
  - travelers under two years of age
* offers temporary protection, while the vaccine provides a longer-lasting immunity.

### protein | antibody:

Immunoglobulin
* are a component of the natural defense mechanism
  - antibodies
  - glycoproteins
  - key components for maintaining the body's immune system
  - part of oligoclonal bands
* are proteins composed of a chain of amino acids called polypeptides
  - that are transferred from dam to calf through the colostrum
  - very complex proteins whose function is to provide various types of immunity
* have numerous regions of beta sheets.
* is an antibody
* provide immunity to the foal against diseases.

### protein | antibody:

Monoclonal antibody
* Monoclonal antibodies allow less perfectly matched donor marrow to be used.
* Monoclonal antibodies are a biotechnology product since their production requires a living system
  - given by infusion
  - identical clones of one original cell
  - key reagents in research and diagnosis
  - laboratory-produced substances that can locate and bind to cancer cells
  - more consistent than polyclonals
  - mouse antibodies which are piggy-backed by radioactivity
  - multiple identical antibodies with the same specific binding affinity
  - new tools to detect and localize specific biological molecules
  - of murine origin unless otherwise listed
  - one of the wonders of modern drug technology
  - still experimental in many instances
  - synthetic antibodies that latch onto specific substances called antigens
  - therefore, identical antibodies produced by a clone
  - very important in medicine
  - bind to one unique epitope
* Monoclonal antibodies can also be of value
  - be important in neutralizing venom in snakebite victims
  - have an affinity for a single epitope which are produced by a clone of cells
  - hold the promise of exquisite specificity of target recognition
  - inhibit in vitro fibrillar aggregation of the Alzheimer beta-amyloid peptide
  - localize in most all connective tissue matrices
  - rank second in the group classification
  - target malignant cells for diagnosis and treatment
  - use the antibodies animals and plants produce to detect disease
* Some monoclonal antibodies go beyond improved detection.
* differentiates chicken A system alloantigens.
* epitope mapping identifies in vitro refolding and aggregation intermediates
  - of Plasmodium falciparum rhoptry proteins

Natural antibody
* Most natural antibodies provide protection.
* Natural antibodies conform to the shape of foreign bodies and bind to the outer surface

Protective antibody
* Most protective antibodies circulate in blood.
  - develop in response to infection and persist for life
  - inhibit reovirus internalization and uncoating by intracellular proteases
  - result from the invasion of the body by viruses or other germs
* Some protective antibodies prevent allergic reaction
