Practical Flashcards
In direct agglutination, the Abs should be __&__
IgM
IgG
In direct agglutination, the Ag should
Insoluble (particulate)
What case prozone phenomenon in brucella
Hight Ab ratio in relation to Ag with case no cross link
Definition of prozone phenomenon
Absence of agglutination in tubes because(Dr used the word “with”)of high concentration of Abs
How to overcome prozone phenomenon
1/ use more than 6 tubes
Dr: use wide range of dilution
2/ add coomb’s reagent (antihuman globulin )
What is the importance( بمعنى resalt) of prozone phenomenon
False -ve result
Name the steps of coomb’s reagent (antihuman globulin)
1/ lgG or lgM antibodies is injected to animal
2/ the animal immune system will secrets anti IgG antibody
3/ these anti IgG Abs will bind to Fc of IgG
4/ this binding will form cross linking Ag Ab complex
And congratulations, we can see visible agglutintion
Name the application that we use passive : quantitative
Antistreptolysin o (ASO) test
Name the application in which reversed passive or qualitative is used
Detection of lancefield groups of beta hemolytic streptococci
In passive ( quantitative ) the unknown is
Abs
In reversed passive (qualitative) the unknown is

In reversed passive latex is associated ( هذه من عندي ) with
