The passage of IgG antibodies from mother to fetus illustrates passive immunity.

  • Antibodies produced outside the body can protect a person from contracting a disease, or they can give passive immunity.
  • Because antibodies are not regenerated as frequently as they would be in a person with a functioning immune system, passive immunity is typically transient.
  • Immunity that is transferred from mother to kid is known as maternal passive immunity or natural passive immunity.
  • Antibodies are transferred to the unborn child by the placenta while they are still in the womb and can offer protection against the corresponding infections in the weeks and months after delivery.
  • An infant's passive immunity to disease is maintained after birth due to antibodies contained in breast milk, particularly in colostrum, the protein-rich milk produced in the first few days after birth.
  • The importance of maternal passive immunity for safeguarding infants until their own immune system is mature enough to protect them.

A response from the amigdala. The reason for this is that when the medulla starts signalling brain regions that are in upper parts, especially the amigdala, this then triggers the fear response (amigdala is responsible for this) which in turn alerts us on a conscious level that we should leave this room for example and go to somewhere where more oxygen is present.

Contact lens solution is described as a sterile, buffered, isotonic aqueous solution. Explain the importance of the adjectives b
OLEGan [10]

A contact lens is a lens placed on the cornea of the eye.


Importance of buffers in contact lens products:

Buffers: They aim to keep the pH of the solutions at values ​​between 6.6 and 7.8 in order to maintain the lens parameters and the effectiveness of the solutions. They are made by the combination of an acid and its sodium salt (phosphate and acetate for example). Borate and citrate buffers are used.


Importance of isotonicity in contact lens products:

The solution composed by isotonic saline solution.

Isotonia is expressed by osmolarity or cryoscopic lowering

- 0.236 to 0.446 mOsmoles / l (increases during the day)

- If the osmolarity of the mixture is different from that of the tears, it causes discomfort and irritation

• Increased tear secretion

• Increase the blink frequency

- If hypotonia, entry of water to the epithelial cells, if hypertonia: inverse

- Osmolarity restored 1 or 2 minutes after instillation
