In the field of avian immunology, there are numerous immune parameters and functions to which different immunological protocols and tests are evolved. Some of these parameters are used to monitor avian health status, while others are measured under a challenging situation by introducing a pathogen. In both cases, some of the immune measures can be performed ex vivo or in vitro , while others are performed in vivo . The general measures of the avian immune response are reviewed here, followed by a review of the more specialized markers of the avian functional immune responses.
