Solution
Lysozyme - gastric juices
Explanation:
Lysozyme is an enzyme present mainly in tears, saliva, and other secretions that attacks bacterial cell walls, but it is not primarily found in gastric juices. Histamine is released by injured cells, interferons are produced by virus-infected cells, and immunoglobulins are produced by plasma cells. Therefore, lysozyme - gastric juices is the incorrect pairing.
