When antibodies are mixed with their corresponding antigens present on the surface of animal cells, erythrocytes, or bacteria, they cross-link these objects to form visible clumps. This serological reaction is called as agglutination and is very similar to the precipitation reaction. Both reactions are specific because they depend on the specific antibody and antigen pair. Antigens involved in precipitation reaction

Options

  1. ADecreasing the affinity of the antibody for the antigen.
  2. BAttaching soluble antigens to large, inert carriers such as erythrocytes or latex beads.
  3. CIncreasing the ionic strength of the reaction solution.
  4. DPerforming the experiment at lower temperature such as 4^ C .

Correct answer

B. Attaching soluble antigens to large, inert carriers such as erythrocytes or latex beads.
