Yes. Antibodies are designed to kill microorganisms like virus and bacteria that infect us. The human body has its natural defense mechanism comprising of the WBCs (White Blood Cells) which fight against these microbes if they enter our body. The WBCs are able to defend us against most simple microbes. Certain microbes are pretty strong and when our WBCs are unable to destroy them, that is when we get infections like fever or flu or any other infection. During such situations, doctors administer us with antibodies that can help our soldiers (WBCs) fight against these invading microbes and destroy them which brings us back to good health.
Phagocytes surround and then physically ingest the microorganisms. Lymphocytes produce antibodies to kill the microorganisms.
Function of Antibodies is to fight against the antigens to protect the body
antibodies fight infections
the antibodies remain in the blood after the infection and destroy the invading microorganisms quickly before they build up into large amounts
complement fixation
The lymphatic system helps fight off microorganisms.
No, antibodies are produced by your body to fight infection.
B cells with IgG antibodies on their surface are capable of responding to microorganisms. The lack of IgG on the surface of the B cells means that they are not prepared to fight infection.
