5. Antibody (Ab) A globulin which is produced by plasma cell as a result of the introduction of an antigen and which has the ability to combine with the antigen that stimulated its production.

6. Immunoglobulins (Ig) Globulins composed of H and L chains, or globulins function as antibody. Immunoglobulins Antibody-containing serum is place in an electrical field Antibodies migrated with the globular proteins.

42. Opsonin. A macromolecule that becomes attached to the surface of a microbe and can be recognized by surface receptors of neutrophils and macrophages and that increase the efficiency of phagocytosis of the microbe. Opsonins include IgG antibodies, which are recognized by the Fc  receptor on phagocytes, and fragment of complement proteins, which are recognized by CR1.
