Antibodies and Immunology

Antibodies are produced by our immune systems to protect our bodies from unwanted substances, such as infections. When a harmful substance enters the body, antibodies bind themselves to the foreign substance in order to destroy it. In this hub, you will find a wide range of articles, research papers, and the latest news on antibodies and immunology.
