HYPERSENSITIVITY hello, doctor vanakam, I hope you all are doing good, as intimated through the last post on anaerobic culture method https://www.stencildent.com/2020/08/anaerobic-culture-methods-microbiology.html if u haven't checked it out do read using this link without any further ado lets get started. CONTENTS: 1)Definition 2)Classification 3)type 1 hypersensitivity reaction a)1st exposure b)2nd exposure c)mediators of reaction d)late-phase reaction 4)type 4 hypersensitivity 5)treatment 1)DEFINITION: It refers to a condition in which immune response results in excessive reaction leading to tissue damage, disease, or even death in a sensitised host. 2) CLASSIFICATION: Coomb and gel classification in 1963 into type 1 to 4 Type 1, type 2, type 3 : They depend on the interaction of antigen with humoral antibodies They are the immediate-type reaction type 4 : They are mediated by t lymphocyte Delayed-type of hypersensitive reaction 3)TYPE 1
