- The
concept of
haptens emerged from the work of
Austrian immunologist Karl Landsteiner, who also
pioneered the use of
synthetic haptens to
study immunochemical...

hapten.
Haptens are low-molecular-weight
compounds that may be
bound by antibodies, but
cannot elicit an
immune response. Consequently, the
haptens themselves...
-
lysine residues for
coupling haptens allows a high
hapten:carrier
protein ratio,
increasing the
likelihood of
generating hapten-specific antibodies. In addition...

Cocaine haptens that
create catalytic anti-bodies
require transitional states as affected...
-
diphtheria toxin,
currently used as a
carrier protein for
polysaccharides and
haptens to make them immunogenic.
There is some
dispute about the
toxicity of CRM197...
-
different individuals,
combine with epithelial-derived proteins,
forming haptens which bind with
Langerhans cells in the mucosa,
which in turn
present the...
-
Tetrafluorophenyl (TFP)
ester chemistry is
typically used to
attach fluorop****s or
haptens to the
primary amines of biomolecules. They
produce the same
amide bonds...
-
allergies are high.
Metal allergies are type IV allergies; the
metals are
haptens. The
toxicity of some
allergenic metals may
contribute to the development...

because of the
small size of
metal ions may
prevent them from
becoming haptens.
Poisoning from
metallosis is rare, but
cobaltism is an

Abzymes are
usually raised in lab
animals immunized against synthetic haptens, but some
natural abzymes can be
found in
normal humans (anti-vasoactive...
