Abstract
Immunity is a very prime factor related to health for the sustainability of life. Environmental factors are responsible to modulate the immunity. Each person has identical and different type of immunity. It is found that even twins have the different immune system. Immunology is the branch of biomedical sciences concerned with all aspects of immune system in all multicellular organisms. Physiological functioning of immune system and Immunological disorders i.e. hypersensitive, allergies, transplant rejection, virus attack etc are studied in immunology. Various techniques are required for specific and accurate results and to understand the behavior of the factors involved in a particular type of immunity. Flow cytometry is one of the basic important techniques widely used in the study of immune system. Large number of research papers show data obtained and analyzed from Flow Cytometry. Mass cytomerty is applied in the research of immunology which is basically a mass spectrometry technique. It is based on inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Fluorescence microscopy (FM) is used to locate a component within the cell. The objective of this technique is to relate the results to the structure and function of the immune system. In this paper few important emerging technologies, which are empowering the research and development work in the field of immunology have been discussed in detail.
