Antibodies:
Antibodies are proteins made by our bodies, particularly plasma cells, that are able to identify(opsonize) and neutralize pathogens such as viruses and bacteria. They are also referred to as immunoglobulins.
Antigens:
They literally mean antibody-generators(anti-gen). These are foreign materials(to our bodies-especially of protein in nature) that are able to elicit an immune response, which means generate antibodies. This property is known as immunogenicity.
