, Acute Phase Reactions Systemic response to infection, tissue injury or
inflammatory process, resulting in fever, increased
white blood cell count, and/or changes to
concentration of many plasma proteins
Affinity Measure of the binding strength (energy) of a
single antibody-antigen reaction
Amino Acid The building blocks (subunits) of proteins
Apoprotein / Apoenzyme A protein (or specific type of protein, such as an
enzyme) that is lacking the ligand or prosthetic it
needs to be fully functional
Ascites Accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity
(within the peritoneal lining)
Avidity Overall strength of binding antibody to antigen;
includes the sum of binding affinities all individual
binding sites on the antibody
Conjugated (Compound) Proteins Polypeptide chain complexed with other chemical
classes such as lipids (lipoproteins), carbohydrates
(glycoproteins), or nucleic acids (nucleoproteins)
Cross Reactant Molecule with a chemical or epitope structure
similar to the antigen that binds the specific
antibody, sometimes with a lower affinity
