Séruplazm

Séruplazm is a term used in the field of immunology to describe a type of immune complex that consists of an antibody (immunoglobulin) bound to an antigen. The term is derived from the French words "sérum" (serum) and "plasma," reflecting its origin in the study of blood serum and plasma. Séruplazms play a crucial role in the immune response by facilitating the neutralization and clearance of pathogens. They are formed when antibodies produced by the immune system bind to foreign substances, such as bacteria, viruses, or toxins, which are then recognized and eliminated by immune cells. The formation and function of séruplazms are essential for the body's defense against infections and the maintenance of immune homeostasis.
