Classes of immunoglobulins: IgG

first antibody secreted; responsible for agglutination

On surface of B cells, role in sensitizing B cells

Ound in glandular secretions, attack pathogens before they access internal tissues

Resistance against viruses, bacteria & bacterial toxins

Classes of immunoglobulins: IgE

Found in glandular secretions, attack pathogens before they access internal tissues

Speed up inflammation

On surface of B cells, role in sensitizing B cells

Resistance against viruses, bacteria & bacterial toxins

Classes of immunoglobulins: IgD

Speed up inflammation

First antibody secreted; responsible for agglutination
