What is immunology? Immunology is a broad branch of biomedical
science that covers the study of all aspects of the immune system in all living organisms.
It deals with the physiological functioning of the immune system in states of both health and disease

What is the immune system?
The immune system is the ministry of defence of the human/animal body

Immunodeficiency and Immunosuppression
Immunodeficiencyis a state in which the immune system's ability to fight infectious disease is low or entirely absent.
Immunosuppression involves an act that reduces the activation or efficacy of the immune system. immunosuppression may occur as an adverse reaction to treatment of other conditions.

Overview of the immune system
![Page 9: Applied Immunology Aftab Jasir: European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) European Public Health Microbiology training program (EUPHEM)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/5515289355034673228b53fe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Antigens (Ag)Large molecules, is anything that obtain the formation of a specific immune response (Anomy)
Ag determinants (epitopes) are the particular chemical groups on a molecule that are antigenic
Antibody(Ab)/immunoglobulin (Ig).A special group of soluble proteins that are produced in response to foreign antigens (substances)

5 classes of IGs1.IgM (first exposure, large, not passing placenta, huge amont)
2.IgG (secondary exposure, small, passing placenta)
1.IgD (proteins in the plasma membranes of mature B-lymphocytes, same time as IgM)
1.IgA (mucosal immunity, respiratory tract)
1. IgE (Allergy and parasites)

Primary and secondary antibodies P: antibodies raised against an antigenic target of interest and are typically unconjugated. S: antibody that binds to primary antibodies or antibody fragments. They are typically labeled with probes that make them useful for detection,

IgGIgG IgMIgM
Biological mechanism that changes a B cell's production of antibody from one class to another, for example, from IgM to IgG.

Four phases of the primary response
• lag phase where no antibody is detected• log phase in which the antibody titer rises
logarithmically• plateau phase during which the antibody titer
stabilizes• phase (decline) during which the antibody is
cleared or catabilized

– Use of antiserum and vaccination to provide protection against disease.
– Diagnostic tool to detect disease.
– Epidemiological investigation of vaccine preventable diseases

Serology
A science that attempts to detect signs of infection in a patient’s serum such as Ab for a specific microbe
Serological tests based on Abs specifically binding to Ag – Ag of known identity will react with Ab in an
unknown serum sample.– Known Ab can be used to detect Ag in serum
Ag-Ab reactions are visible by clumps, precipitates, color changes or release of radioactivity.
The most effective tests have high specificity and sensitivity.

Specificity, sensitivity, and cross reactivity
a) Specificity– Ab attaches with great
exact-ness to only one type of Ag.
b) Sensitivity – Ab can locate Ag, even
when it is greatly diluted.c) Cross reactivity
– the ability of an individual antibody combining site to react with more than one antigenic determinant or the ability of a population of antibody molecules to react with more than one antigen.

What should you have in mind!!!Tack home massage
Some times Ag x Ab based tests can results in wrong alarm of outbreak ( Salmonella)
Antigen variation is always a problem (Chlamydia, grouping of streptococci)
Cross-reactivity can give wrong information of an outbreak
Any unusual or unexpected results should be confirmed by genetic test
If possible use other methods than serology in an outbreak situation or combine with other methods
