Abstract
Immune system consists of innate and adaptive immunity and functions to prevent our body from microorganisms intrusion, as well as to continuously remove damaged cells. Proper function of immune system depends on maturation and coordinated activation of its different components. Inborn or acquired defects of immune components cause immunodeficiencies. Primary care physicians alertness and availability of specialized laboratory methods of assessment of cellular and humoral immunity, complement and phagocytosis are important for up-to-date diagnosis of these disorders.
