The immune response of IG is highly complex and very specific. There are different types of IGs that differ in their biological features, structure, target specificity, and distribution such as IgG, IgA, and IgM. These IGs can be administered intravenously and subcutaneously for the treatment of various immunological and neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Primary Humoral Immunodeficiency (PIDD), Immune Thrombocytopenia Purpura (ITP), and autoimmune haemolytic anemia.
