3. ( 1 )- IMPORTANTANCE OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM:
Immunology is the study of how the body protects
itself against invading pathogens and harmful cells
or substances.
The basic function of the immune system are to:
• Protect the body from the harmful effects of viral,
bacterial, fungal, and parasitic pathogens and their
toxins.
• Destroy abnormal cells which may formed in the
body such as cancer cells.
• Prevent the abnormal breakdown of the body's
own tissues.
4. ( 2 )- NATURAL AND ACQUIRED IMMUNITY.
The body's immune mechanisms consist of :
• Non-specific natural immunity.
• Specific acquired immunity. – Specific.
Non
•Mechanical Barriers.
•Antimicrobial secretion.
•Phagocytosis.
•Killer Cells. ( Natural ).
•Body Natural Microbial flora.
•Genetic factors.
Specific
(1) - Humoral or Cell- Mediated.
IMMUNITY : (2)- Corporal Local Abs.
Active : (1) - Infection.
(2) - Immunization
Vaccination.
Passive : (1) - Transplacental Breast
Milk. (2) - Antitoxins Gamma globulins.
5. Antibodies :
Antibodies are immunoglobulin's ( Ig ) which react specifically
with antigens. Immunoglobulin's are composed of two types of
polypeptide ( amino acid ) chains, i.e. heavy chains and light
chains. They are classified by their heavy chains because these
are different for each class of immunoglobulin as follows :
Ig G :
Ig G is the main antibody which binds to foreign antigen at a
later stage of a primary infection than Ig M and forms the rapid
antibody response in repeated infection i.e. secondary
response.
Ig M :
Ig M provide the early but short - lived antibody response in a
primary infection, and therefore rises in Ig M levels indicate
present or recent infection.
6. Ig A :
Ig A antibodies are found in secretions of the eye, nose,
mouth, bronchi, and intestinal tract. They are locally
active in neutralizing toxins and viruses, and assisting
in phagocytosis.
Ig D :
Ig D is normally present in the body in small amount. It
is known to be active against food antigens and auto
antigens of nuclear origin.
Ig E :
Ig E, like Ig D, is also normally present in the body in
very small amounts and is found in mucous
membranes. Raised levels of Ig E are found in some
intestinal parasitic infections and Allergic
manifestation.
7. ( 3 ) - NUTRITION AND DEFICIENCY DISORDERS:
An intake of essential nutrients and water is required to
sustain life and to keep the different systems of the body
functioning well and in harmony.

•Protein.
•Fiber.
•Iron.
•Other Mineral Salts.
•Vitamins and Amino Acids.
•Water.
8. ( B ) - Importance of Breast Feeding a Baby.
Breast milk contains antibodies and other protective
substances. It is a very nutritious food and is enough
on its own for a baby's needs until the infant is about
four months old. After this, breast milk is not enough
and other food must be added to a baby's diet to
provide extra calories and protein, as well as vitamins
and minerals. If this is not done a child will not grow
and develop normally and suffer from protein – energy
malnutrition ( PEM ).
( C ) – Drugs and its abuses.

10. ( 5 ) - DIAGNOSTIC TEST REQUIREMENT.
SAMPLE:
S - Smallest
A - Amount of
M - Material
P - Provided to
L - Laboratory for
E - Evaluation.
11. ( 6 ) – SAMPLE REQUIRMENT.
( a ). MACRO TESTING.
( b ). MICRO TESTING.
( 7 ) – HOW TO INTERPERATE THE RESULTS.
A – BACTERIAL INFECTIONS. SALMONELLA.BRUCELLA.
B – VIRAL INFECTION. HEPATITIS, HIV, HSV, CMV,
CHLAMYDIA,RUBELLA, ETC.
C – PROTOZOAL INFECTION. SHISTOSOMA, AMOEBA, TOXO.
12. ( 8 ) - CONCCUSION.
1 - No Serological Negative test gives final diagnosis. Due to
seropositive window.
2 - Low titre positive result should not be given final
diagnosis till the follow up is done and confirmed.
3 - In some Bacterial, parasitological and viral infection IgG
result should not be considered as final for treatment till IgM
is done.
4 - A confirm positive result is taken as positive.
13. Final Remark's:
An apple a day keeps the Doctor Away
But
If the Doctor is good and handsome keeps the
sickness away.
