Immunoglobulins are basically proteins that function as antibodies. The terms antibody and immunoglobulin are often used interchangeably. Immunoglobulins are found in blood and other tissues and fluids. They are made by the plasma cells that are derived from the B cells of the immune system.B cells of the immune system become plasma cells when activated by the binding of a specific antigen on its antibody surfaces.hey are made by the plasma cells that are derived from the B cells of the immune system.

Not to be confused with globin or globular protein. The globulins are a family of globular proteins that have higher molecular weights than albumins and are insoluble in pure water but soluble in dilute salt solutions. Some globulins are produced in the liver, while others are made by the immune system.Globulins, albumin, and fibrinogen are the major blood proteins. The normal concentration of globulins in human blood is about 2.6-4.6 g/dL. The term globulin is sometimes used synonymously with globular protein.However, albumins are also globular proteins, but are not globulins. All other serum globular proteins are globulins.he normal concentration of globulins in human blood is about 2.6-4.6 g/dL. The term globulin is sometimes used synonymously with globular protein. However, albumins are also globular proteins, but are not globulins.
