Immune chemistry
Immune chemistry, or immunochemistry, is the study of the chemistry of the immune system and its mediators. Immune chemistry focuses on the functions, interactions, and productions of chemicals by the immune system. This could include chemicals like antibodies, cytokines, and protein epitopes which are expressed on the surface of immune cells.
