Module 6 Flashcards
A low molecular weight substance that can induce an immune response when coupled to high molecular weight immunogenic molecules.
Hapten
The portion of the antibody that contains the peptide sequences that form the antigen binding site.
Fab Region
A substance that stimulates an animal lymphocyte to produce an antibody that specifically binds to it.
Antigen
A measure of an antiserum’s antibody concentration, usually expressed as the antiserum dilution that gives 50% binding of labeled antigen.
Titer
Sensitivity is also referred to as:
True Positive Rate
Specificity is also referred to as:
True Negative Rate
Uses genetically engineered fragments of E. coli beta-galactosidase as an enzyme label.
CEDIA
90% of Ig in the serum is:
IgG
In the absence of the drug of interest, the conjugate of microparticle and drug molecules binds several antibody molecules and forms large aggregates that scatter transmitted light.
KIMS
If a drug is found in the donor’s sample, the unbound Enzyme Donor part reassembles and reacts with the substrate and causes a change in the color absorbance.
CEDIA
What does the FPN test for?
Phenothiazines
What does the Fujiwara test for?
Trichloro Compounds
What color does the cyantesmo paper turn in presence of HCN?
Blue
What is an immunologic phenomenon whereby the effectiveness of antibodies to form immune complexes can be impaired when concentrations of an antibody or an antigen are very high.
Hook Effect
The study of the absorption and emission of light and other radiation by matter, as related to the dependence of these processes on the wavelength of the radiation
Spectroscopy
