On the antigen-antibody interaction: A thermodynamic consideration

On the antigen-antibody interaction: A thermodynamic consideration Despite its relevance to many biomedical fields, relatively little effort has been put into a comprehensible quantitative description of the effect of reaction temperature on the interaction between antigens and their antibodies. In this article, a novel, straightforward mathematical model is proposed, which aims to describe the effect of temperature on antigen-antibody kinetics. The model proposed in this article could hopefully provide clinicians, immunologists, and biochemists with an improved insight into the kinetic effect of fluctuations in reaction temperature on antigen-antibody-dependent processes and therefore into the kinetics of the humoral adaptive immune response. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Human Antibodies IOS Press

Abstract

Despite its relevance to many biomedical fields, relatively little effort has been put into a comprehensible quantitative description of the effect of reaction temperature on the interaction between antigens and their antibodies. In this article, a novel, straightforward mathematical model is proposed, which aims to describe the effect of temperature on antigen-antibody kinetics. The model proposed in this article could hopefully provide clinicians, immunologists, and biochemists with an improved insight into the kinetic effect of fluctuations in reaction temperature on antigen-antibody-dependent processes and therefore into the kinetics of the humoral adaptive immune response.
