What is Determinants of Antigenicity Factors about?

The key factors that determine antigenicity are: 1. Molecular weight - Larger molecules are more antigenic. 2. Chemical nature - Proteins and polysaccharides are the best antigens, while lipids and nucleic acids are the least antigenic. 3. Susceptibility to enzymes - Antigens that are degraded or phagocytosed less are more antigenic. 4. Foreignness - Self antigens are less antigenic than antigens from twins, other humans, or other species. 5. Physical form - Particulate antigens are more immunogenic th
