STOCHASTIC INVENTORY ANALYSIS OF ANTIBODY PRODUCTION

Abstract In this paper, we present a stochastic inventory model for monoclonal antibody maintenance and production during a secondary immune response. This involves a new concept of “cost” factors to represent associated biochemical energy constraints in vivo . Analysis and illustrative results for predictive and explanatory applications are also presented and future directions of research indicated.
