Overview: Overview: Antigen-antibody reactions are commonly used in immunological assays. In a traditional agglutination assay, the end product is a visible antibody-antigen complex that settles as visible particulate matter in the solution. In other cases, the reaction is invisible and wants the use of a specific enzyme or isotopic probes that can amplify the signal created by the antigen-antibody reaction, so that they can be detected with the naked eye or an ELISA/RIA reader1. Hemagglutination is a visible antigen -antibody assay in which soluble antibodies react with antigen on the surface of (red blood cell) RBC to form a ...

It is essential to note that salt marshes and estuaries provide more resources and services than any other ecosystem. They provide edible animals, plants, fiber, thatch, fuel, and fodder. They also offer protection from storms, act as nurseries for fish, and provide biogeochemical filters (Gedan, 230). The aim will thus be to look for evidence concerning the above provisions in salt marshes.

Environmental

The collection will involve taking temperature measurements in the salt marshes, types of plants that are found in the region, water levels and purity, etc. The temperature in the areas is expected to rise while ...

The Goal is generally about emerging principles in the manufacturing industry. Here, the book discusses the efforts of a manager of a plant in increasing the productivity of his factory.

Also, the manager finally understands that the efficiency of the processes in his factory are ...
