Abstract

Sheep erythrocytes sensitized with amboceptor and persensitized thereafter with guinea pig complement are agglutinated by rabbit anti-guinea pig globulin and by immune sera obtained by injection of rabbits with fixed complement. In this agglutination neither C'1 nor C'2 takes part. Fixed C'4 acts as an agglutinogen. An additional agglutinogen, distinct from C'4, was found on persensitized cells. This additional agglutinogen appears to be distinct from hemolytically active C'3.

Antibodies: Agglutination

Antibody-mediated agglutination is the clumping of cells in the presence of antibody, which binds multiple cells together. This enhances the clearance of pathogens. Find the latest research on antibody-mediated agglutination here.
