PROTEINS that the immune system sees as “NOT SELF” are called ANTIGENS The immune system makes ANTIBODIES that MATCH each antigen it is exposed to http://freaksnotgeeks.blogspot.com/2008/11/overview-of-adaptive-immunity-antigens_15.html
ANTIBODIES bind to ANTIGENS and cause them to CLUMP TOGETHER (= AGGLUTINATION) http://www2.estrellamountain.edu/faculty/Farabee/BIOBK/antigenAB.gif
BLOOD TESTING LAB Person with A type blood makes ANTIBODIES TO B Person with B type blood makes ANTIBODIES TO A Person with O type blood makes ANTIBODIES TO A & B
FOR EACH PATIENT Add 5 drops of PATIENT BLOOD into each well in the test plate. http://www.rapidonline.com/pdf/52-0822T.PDF
FOR EACH PATIENT Add 3 drops of ANTI-SERUM (contains ANTIBODIES) into the correctly labeled well in the test plate. Stir for 10 seconds. http://www.rapidonline.com/pdf/52-0822T.PDF
YOU CAN’T SEE WHAT GLYCOPROTEINS A CELL HAS YOU CAN’T SEE WHAT GLYCOPROTEINS A CELL HAS . . . BUT YOU CAN SEE HOW IT REACTS TO THE ANTIBODIES IN THE ANTI-SERUM. http://o.quizlet.com/rAkvQliCRKBx2t7dcC4-zg_m.jpg
