Slide Agglutinaton Testi Flashcards
Presence of particulate antigens. Antigens will bind when the specific antibody is present.
Agglutination
Process by which particulate antigens such as calls aggregate to form a larger complexes when a specific antibody is present.
Agglutination
Immunoglobin for cold?
IgM
Immunoglobin for warm
IgG
Involves antigen-antibody combination through single antigenic determinants on the particle surface.
Reversible reaction
Sensitization
Representing the sum of interactions between antibody and multiple antigenic determinants on a particle.
Lattice formation
Networks to have visible agglutination.
Lattice formation
Naturally found on a particle
Direct agglutination
Particles coated with antigens not normally found their surfaces.
Indirect / Passive Agglutination ‘
Particles are coated with reagent antibody
Reverse passive
Happen attached to a carrier particles.
Agglutination inhibition
Particles compete with patient antigens for a limited number of antibody sites
Agglutination inhibition
Red blood cells SPONTANEOUSLY AGGLUTINATE if viral particles are present.
Hemaglutination Inhibition
Agglutination indicates the presence of patient antibody
Direct agglutination
Agglutination indicates the presence of patient antibody.
Direct agglutination
