What are antibodies?

Antibodies are a Y-shaped protein that is produced naturally by the immune system of the body against any disease-causing microbes.

They are very effective against bacteria, viruses, or other chemicals.

These antibodies are produced by WBC's in our bodies and are very specific to the antigen (microbe).

Examples- IgG, IgM, IgD, etc.
