the formation of an insoluble complex or precipitate when antibody (Ab), a soluble protein, is mixed with a soluble antigen (Ag), such as a serum protein.
|
|
precipitin reaction measures
|
only method by which the actual weight of a specific Ab can be measured
|
|
agglutination reaction
|
antibody is mixed with an insoluble or particulate antigen such as a bacterial cell or red blood cell
|
|
agglutination rxn makes
|
The insoluble Ag is cross linked by the soluble Ab molecules and a large visible mass is formed
need to have optimal ratios |
