Question
Biomedical Engineering:
An equilibrium dialysis experiment was performed to characterize the binding affinity of a mouse IgG or human IgG antibody for an antigen, GAD65. (The association constant for the monoclonal mouse IgG is 4.75 x 10^8 M-1 and for a human IgG is 1.3 x 10^10 M-1)
a- calculate the dissociation constant for each antibody and explain which antibody has a higher binding affinity for GAD65?
b-calculate the fraction of free Ab sites for each antibody for a For a GAD65 concentration of 0.7 nM
