An equation says that two things are equal. It will have an equals sign = like this: 7 + 2 = 10 â 1. That equation says: what is on the left (7 + 2) is equal to what is on the right (10 â 1) So an equation is like a statement this equals that. Here is another equation:
Detection of antibodies to gliadin, one of the major protein components of gluten, is a sensitive assay useful in diagnosing celiac disease. However, gliadin antibodies may be found in individuals without celiac disease; thus gliadin antibody assays are less specific than assays measuring antibodies to endomysium and transglutaminase.
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most abundant circulating antibody, making up 80% of the total antibodies and 75% of that found in serum. It contains a single antibody protein complex, with two heavy chains and two light chains.igure 15.16 Different Antibody types. There are five different antibodies classes that are formed in the cell. See the text for more details. IgM is the largest antibody, with five Y structures being joined by their Fc regions in a circular configuration.
