Modeling the average molecular weights of antigen-antibody complexes by probability theory.
A method is presented to calculate average molecular weights for linear antigen-antibody complexes. Instead of determining the whole distributions and then using the distributions to calculate average properties, this method allows one to calculate the number-average, the weight-average, and the z-average molecular weights of the linear antigen-antibody complexes directly based on elementary probability theory and the recursive nature of antigen-antibody complexes.
