Abstract:
In the review the overall characteristics of biological warfare components, which represent danger to people in the case of their application by military or terrorist groups are discussed. The main part of the review is devoted to modern approaches of antibody obtaining and, in particular, preparation of specific recombinant immunoglobulins as well as to different immune chemical methods of determination of individual toxins and pathogenic microorganisms. A special attention is paid to existing data about the development of rapid, selective, high sensitive, simple and fully automated instrumental methods on the basis of biosensor technology which is designed for the control of components of biological warfare in environmental objects. Additionally industrially manufactured biosensors and their characteristics are given and analyzed.

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
