Detection And Quality Control Of Host Proteins
Host proteins (HCP) form a major part of the process-related impurities in the production of biologics. The amount of residual HCP in a pharmaceutical product is often considered a critical quality attribute (CQA) because of its potential to affect product safety and efficacy.

Definition And Structure Of Antibodies
Antibodies are shaped like the letter 'Y' and their main job is to bind to an invading antigen, but not to kill the antigen - they do not have this function; the binding is to give the antigen a marker to be destroyed. When phagocytes find the marker to destroy, they come forward and swallow the antibody-bound antigen and digest it.

Selfish Bacterial Plasmids
Plasmids are a segment of circular DNA within a bacterium that is not part of the bacterial nuclear genome; they replicate within the cell and enter a daughter cell at random when it divides.

Detection of Cytokines Cytokines are a broad category of molecular proteins and polypeptides produced by endocrine cells that are closely related to immune response activities, mainly including Interleukin (Interleukin) - IL-1, IL-2,... Interferon)—IFN-α, TNF-β; Colony-stimulating factor—M-CSF, G-CSF; Transforming growth factor—TGF-β; Chemokine—IL -8, GROs, MCP-1; Growth factor - EGF, FGF, IGF, PDGF.
Cell Signal Transduction The cell signal transduction pathway is a complex mechanism of cell membrane response to extracellular signal stimulation. The cell membrane separates the inside and outside of the cell. The cell needs to receive the external signal to make the corresponding response. It needs to transmit the external signal to the cell membrane through a class of transmembrane proteins.
Immunology Immunology is a basic science to study the organizational structure and physiological function of the immune system. It includes the composition and structural characteristics of the immune system and the physiological function of the immune system. Immune cells and their related organs and tissues constitute an immune system.
