In immunology, the term sensitization is used for the following concepts:〔Anderson DM, ed. (2003). "Sensitization." ''Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary, 30th ed.''

Thus the step follows requires the secondary antibodies against those primary antibodies, that is, the secondary antibodies must have binding specificity to the primary antibodies including to their Fc regions. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sensitization (immunology)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
