Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied how different substances can change how well a specific protein in our body, called secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA), can grab onto germs like viruses and bacteria.
- They tested sIgA by exposing it to things like acidic solutions, free heme, and some metal ions to see how these affected its ability to bind to germs.
- They found that acidic solutions made sIgA bind better to various germs, more than the other treatments, which means it could help our body respond to infections more effectively.
