Immunochemistry

Imunochemistry is a discipline at the frontier immunology and chemistry that studies immune processes at the molecular level, namely the structure, biosynthesis, properties and interactions of molecules involved in immune reactions (ie antigens and antibodies) or affecting immune reactions (cytokines, enzymes, immunohormones, inhibitors, complement, receptors). The main goal of immunochemistry is to develop highly specific and sensitive analytical methods for the determination of various substances (not only pathogens).
