It includes necrotic laryngitis [...], necrotic stomatitis of calves, necrotic rhinitis of pigs [...], foot rot of cattle [...], foot abscess of sheep [...], postparturient necrosis of the vagina and uterus, focal necrosis of the liver of cattle and sheep, quittor of horses [...], and numerous other necrotic lesions in ruminants and, less commonly, in pigs, horses, fowl, and rabbits. F. necrophorum is probably a secondary invader rather than a primary etiologic agent and is usually present as part of a mixed infection. However, its necrotizing exotoxin undoubtedly plays a role in the production of characteristic lesions. It is part of the normal flora of the mouth, intestine, and genital tract of many herbivores and omnivores and it is widespread in the environment. 1, record 2, English, - necrobacillosis

Chaque réaction antigène-anticorps (Ag-Ac) se caractérise par : la spécificité (identification de l'Ag reconnu) et l'affinité (force de la liaison entre l'Ag et l'Ac). Les anticorps de forte affinité relachent difficilement in vivo l'antigène reconnu (on peut provoquer artificiellement in vitro la rupture du complexe Ag-Ac, par chauffage par exemple) tandis que les anticorps de faible affinité oscillent en permanence entre une forme libre (sans Ag) et une forme complexée à l'Ag. 2, record 3, French, - r%C3%A9action%20antig%C3%A8ne%2Danticorps

La unión antígeno-anticuerpo es específica, cada anticuerpo reconoce y se une a un determinado antígeno. Esta unión se realiza por medio de uniones intermoleculares entre el antígeno y la zona del anticuerpo, y da lugar al complejo antígeno-anticuerpo según el modelo llave-cerradura. Las reacciones antígeno-anticuerpo tienen diversas consecuencias y existen varios tipos: [...] de precipitación antígeno + anticuerpo, [...] de aglutinación, [...] de neutralización, reacción de opsonización. 4, record 3, Spanish, - reacci%C3%B3n%20ant%C3%ADgeno%2Danticuerpo
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 CONT
En las reacciones antígeno-anticuerpo se distinguen 2 fases; la primera consiste en la unión del antígeno con el anticuerpo y la segunda en las manifestaciones que resultan de dicha unión. La primera fase se realiza por la combinación de áreas pequeñas tanto del antígeno como del anticuerpo, denominadas respectivamente determinante antigénico y sitio activo, que al unirse forman un complejo antígeno-anticuerpo. La reacción es reversible, siguiendo, por consiguiente, la ley de acción de masas y existen factores externos que pueden modificar dicha unión, como son: el pH, la temperatura y la fuerza iónica. 5, record 3, Spanish, - reacci%C3%B3n%20ant%C3%ADgeno%2Danticuerpo
