Adaptive immunity is a defense system built on specific cellular targeting. It takes time for the immune system to develop its weaponry (up to 96 hours after infection), but ultimately the adaptive response is far more effective because of its precision.

This section looks at all the breeds of different species as well as covering the normal haematology, biochemistry and physiological parameters.

Once infection is identified, antigen is transported to lymphoid organs where it is recognised by naive B and T cells. Clonal expansion and differentiation of these cells occurs, and then the battle begins. The immune system can take several tacks, depending on the type of infection encountered. Ultimately, the goals of the adaptive response are two-fold: to produce neutralizing antibody, and to flag up infected cells for destruction. This annihilation can be carried out by the cells of both innate and adaptive immunity.
