| OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc. | This study describes how different clones of fish immunoglobulin M (igM) respond to infectious pancreatic necrosis virus infection. It also described the activation og the immunoglobulin T (igT) which is found on the surface as a mucosal antibody in fish. It shows a clear contrast between the mucosal antibody (IgT) and the blood circulatory antibody (igM) in fish in response to activation by the virus (IPNV).. This study can be used to understand the functional mechanisms of different immunoglobulins found in fish in response to viral infections. |

| OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational process | The study can be used to explain the different functions of fish immunoglobulin to students. Also, it can be used to show students aspects of comparative immunology the show that fish use IgT as a mucosal immunoglobulin unlike humans/animals that use IgA. it also shows that fish use IgM as the main systemic antibody unlike animals/humans that use both IgM and IgG as the main protective antibodies. |
