25
Q 
most efficient class of Ab in agglutination by
700x than IgG because of its bigger size
A

IgM

26
Q

has restricted flexibility at the hinge region

A

igG

27
Q

agglutination reaction step Affected by the nature of the antibody molecules (IgM, IgG) and the antigens

A

sensitization

28
Q

Stabilization of antigen-antibody complexes with the binding of multiple
antigenic determinants

A

lattice formation

29
Q

In order for agglutination to happen, the negative

charged must be controlled and the lattice formation must be enhanced.

A

true

30
Q

Reduce the water of hydration around cells and allow them to come into
closer proximity for antibody to join together

A

Dextran or polyethylene glycol (PEG)

31
Q

Cleaves the sialoglycoprotein/sialic acid which reduces the surface charge on
RBCs which also causes changes in the external configuration of the RBC
membrane revealing more epitopes and decreasing hydration => RBC stick
together

A

Addition of enzymes (bromelin, trypsin, papain, ficin)

32
Q

provides physical means to increase cell to cell

contact

A

Agitation & centrifugation

33
Q

forward/front typing method

A
  • slide method

* tube method

34
Q

occurs when antigens are naturally

found on a particle.

A

Direct agglutination (blood typing principle)

35
Q

Direct agglutination involving RBCs

A

hemagglutination

36
Q

particles are coated w/ antigens

not naturally found on the surface of particle.

A

. Passive agglutination (indirect agglutination)

37
Q

Passive agglutination (indirect agglutination) example

A

Detection of rheumatic factor (IgM that attacks Fc of IgG); Antinuclear antibody (ANA) as seen in SLE patients

38
Q

Reverse passive agglutination

A

Detection of CRP (C reactive protein) & CALAS (Cryptococcal
Antigen Latex Agglutination System; Cryptococcus neoformans causes
fungal meningitis)

39
Q

Reverse: instead of antigen, antibody is attached to a carrier particle
- Passive: antibody not normally found on surface of particle

A

Reverse passive agglutination

40
Q

Based on the competition between particulate & soluble antigens for limited
combining sites

A

Agglutination inhibition

41
Q
  • Lack of agglutination = positive reaction
A

Agglutination inhibition

42
Q

Detection of illicit drugs (cocaine or heroin)

A

Agglutination inhibition

43
Q
  • Uses bacteria as the inert particles to which antibody is attached
A

Coagglutination

44
Q

commonly used in coagglutination

A

S.aureus

45
Q

type of agglutination where Reactions are difficult to read due to bacteria being colorless

A

Coagglutination

46
Q

what protein is found in S. Aureus

A

Protein A

47
Q

whats the use of protein a in coagglutination

A

naturally adsorbs Fc portion of antibody molecules

48
Q

cause cross reactions since some antigens share the sameantigenic properties causing them to react with the same antibody

A

rbc

49
Q

ideal but expensive TYPE OF PARTICLE USED IN AGGLUTINATION

A

Synthetic beads

50
Q

TYPE OF PARTICLE USED IN AGGLUTINATION which is inexpensive, relatively stable, unlikely to cause cross reactions and results are relatively easy to read

A

Inert Carriers (e.g. latex particles)

51
Q

Advantage: consistency, conformity and stability; reactions are easy to read
because of large particles

A

Synthetic beads

52
Q

In ionic solution, red cells surround themselves with cations to
form an ionic cloud keeping them about 25 nm apart.

A

true

53
Q

what causes a slight negative surface charge in Erythrocytes and bacterial cells

sialic acid/sialoglycoprotein

54
Q

directed

A

Typing serum

55
Q

How long do you centrifuge in tube method for Blood typing

A
