| antibody excess | In a precipitation test, the presence of antibody in an amount greater than that required to combine with all of the antigen present. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| antibody induced lysis | <haematology> The term is imprecise and should not be used since there is confusion as to which mechanism is involved, i.e. Natural killing or complement lysis. See: complement lysis, natural killer cells. (09 Feb 1998) |
| antibody producing cell | <immunology> A lymphocyte of the B series synthesising and releasing immunoglobulin. Equivalent to plasmacyte and plasma cell. (18 Nov 1997) |
| antibody specificity | The property of antibodies which enables them to react with some antigenic determinants and not with others. Specificity is dependent on chemical composition, physical forces, and molecular structure at the binding site. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibody technology | <molecular biology> Techniques for the synthesis of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies for use in research, diagnostics and therapeutics. (09 Feb 1998) |
| antibody-coated bacteria test, urinary | Fluorescent antibody technique for visualizing antibody-bacteria complexes in urine. The presence or absence of antibody-coated bacteria in urine correlates with localization of urinary tract infection in the kidney or bladder, respectively. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity | The phenomenon of antibody-mediated target cell destruction by non-sensitised effector cells. The identity of the target cell varies, but it must possess surface IgG whose fc portion is intact. The effector cell is a "killer" cell possessing fc receptors. It may be a lymphocyte lacking conventional b- or T-cell markers, or a monocyte, macrophage, or polynuclear leukocyte, depending on the identity of the target cell. The reaction is complement-independent. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibody-dependent enhancement | Enhancement of viral infectivity caused by non-neutralizing antibodies. There are at least two mechanisms known to account for this: mediation by fc receptors (receptors, fc) or by complement receptors (receptors, complement). Either the virus is complexed with antiviral IgG and binds to fc receptors, or virus is coated with antiviral IgM and binds to complement receptors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibody-forming cell | <immunology> B-cells (plasma cells) that are dedicated to producing secreted antibodies. (09 Feb 1998) |
| antibody-producing cells | Cells of the lymphoid series that can react with antigen to produce specific cell products called antibodies. Various cell subpopulations, often B-lymphocytes, can be defined, based on the different classes of immunoglobulins that they synthesise. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibrachial | <anatomy> Of or pertaining to the antibrachium, or forearm. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| antibrachium | <anatomy> That part of the fore limb between the brachium and the carpus; the forearm. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| antibromic | 1. Deodorizing. 2. A deodoriser. Origin: anti-+ G. Bromos, smell (05 Mar 2000) |
| antic | 1. Old; antique. <zoology> "Lords of antic fame." 2. Odd; fantastic; fanciful; grotesque; ludicrous. "The antic postures of a merry-andrew." (Addison) "The Saxons . . . Worshiped many idols, barbarous in name, some monstrous, all antic for shape." (Fuller) Origin: The same word as antique; cf. It. Antico ancient. See Antique.
