Summary Introduction
Introduction: Antibodies also referred to as immunoglobulins. These are the proteins produced by the immune system to provide help for protecting the body and stop the intruders. Action is taken by the immune system on the entrance of intruders in the body. These intruders may include viruses, bacteria, and other chemicals, and these are altogether named antigens.
