General Information
... B cells - During an immune response B-cells make antibodies. Antibodies - Antibodies are made by B-cells, they attach to “critters”, marking them for destruction by the immune system. Antibodies are specific to the “critter” (bacteria, virus, or other harmful toxins). ...

LYMPHATIC SYSTEM AND IMMUNITY
... antibodies specific to a given antigen. Antibodies bind to the antigens on invaders and kill or inactivate them in several ways. Most antibodies are themselves proteins or are a mix of protein and polysaccharides. Antigens can be any molecule that causes an immune system response. There are two type ...
