Circulating Immunocomplex

The Circulating Immunocomplex test is conducted to determine the severity of the immune-complex disease. This test is advised by doctors when there is improper immune system functioning. The noncovalent union of antigen and antibody forms circulating immune complexes (CICs), a diverse collection of immunoreactions. The synthesis, immunochemistry, biology, and clearance of these soluble reactants are influenced by many factors.

The role of our immune system is to safeguard the body from bacteria and viruses by producing proteins called antibodies. Antibodies form in response to antigens, which are different proteins, unlike naturally occurring proteins. When many antigen-antibody complexes multiply in the body, it results in immune-complex reactions. Immune complexes are seen in individuals with autoimmune disorders and viral and infectious diseases.
