  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-005671",
  "term": "Immunogenicity",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The capacity of a substance, such as a polymer, to induce an immune response in a host organism. This response involves the production of antibodies or the activation of immune cells. The degree of immunogenicity depends on factors like molecular size, chemical composition, and surface properties.",
