    One can interpret the CH50 value along with the individual's complement factor values to help determine the etiology. For example, if and individual has normal C3/C4 values but a decreased CH50, that can indicate a terminal complement pathway deficiency while if one has low C3 and CH50 values that can indicate an autoimmune condition such as ...

  3. Complementary colors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementary_colors

    Complementary colors are pairs of colors which, when combined or mixed, cancel each other out (lose chroma) by producing a grayscale color like white or black. [1] [better source needed] When placed next to each other, they create the strongest contrast for those two colors. Complementary colors may also be called "opposite colors".

    The "upper" part of an antibody.The complementarity-determining regions of the heavy chain are shown in red (. Complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) are polypeptide segments of the variable chains in immunoglobulins (antibodies) and T cell receptors, generated by B-cells and T-cells respectively.

    Color analysis can be conducted by-eye, usually matching specimen color with reference charts. This methodology has been used extensively in soil analysis, often using the Munsell color system as the reference. [1] [2] While this is a traditionally used method, it is considerably subjective, relying on the ability of the naked eye to match colors.

    When staring at a bright color for a while (e.g. red), then looking away at a white field, an afterimage is perceived, such that the original color will evoke its complementary color (green, in the case of red input).

    That is, colors that are adjacent appear to overlap; a secondary color is observed. Some assays are designed so that the secondary color will be present or absent in cases of interest. An example is the detection of BCR/ABL translocations, where the secondary color indicates disease. This variation is often called double-fusion FISH or D-FISH.
