γ-globulins

γ-globulins
gamma globulins serum globulins having the least rapid electrophoretic migration. Since the gamma globulin fraction is composed almost entirely of immunoglobulin, gamma globulin came to be used as a synonym for “immunoglobulin” or “immune globulin.” Because some immunoglobulins have α or β electrophoretic mobility, this usage is imprecise and is in decline.
