Q

An isolated antigenic determinant that has the ability to react specifically with antibodies but cannot induce their formation is called

A

hapten

(An isolated antigenic determinant that has the ability to specifically react with antibodies but cannot induce their production is called a hapten. Superantigens are a class of antigens that lead to overactivation of the immune system. In particular, it causes non-specific T-cell activation, leading to polyclonal T-cell activation and massive cytokine release. Allergen is a substance capable of causing an abnormal immune response called an allergy. Antigen is the name for all molecules that stimulate the immune response.)
