1. Principles and 1. Principles and influencing factors of Ag-Ab reaction 1) Principles of Ag-Ab reaction a.Specificity b.reversal b.reversal combination c.Concentration and ratio of Ag and Ab

2) influencing factors of Ag-Ab reaction A.electrolytes B.Temperature:37 degree C.pH:pH6-8

2 Methods for detection of Ag or Ab A. Agglutination reaction a. Principle When the particle Ags interact with the appropriate Ab, they clump together and eventually form masses that become large enough to be seen. b. Types direct agglutination reaction indirect agglutination reaction
9
B. Precipitation reaction a. Principle When soluble Ags come in contact with specific Ab, they precipitate. Precipitation can be demonstrated via immunodiffusion in a semisolid medium (e.g. agar). b. Types immunonephelometry: the formation of IC in solution is monitored by spectrometry. single immunodiffusion double immunodiffusion immunoelectrophoresis
11
C. Complement fixation test Ag and Ab reactions lead to the formation of IC that activates complement system by classical pathway. This may be exploited to detect the amount of unknown Ag or Ab.
14
D. Immuno-labeling techniques a. Principle Specific Abs (or Ags ) labelled with fluorescein, enzymes, colloidial gold or radioisotopes are used as probes for the detection of Ags (or Abs). b. Types
15
Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) EIA is to use enzyme-labeled Abs or Ags to detect Ag and Ab interactions. The enzyme converts a colorless substrate (chromogen) to a colored product. ELISA: Ag or Ab in solution Enzyme immunohistochemistry: Ag in tissue
17
Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA The advantages of ELISA include specificity, sensitivity, rapidity, inexpensiveness, and safety. Enzyme: horseradish peroxidase, HRP Substrates: diaminobenzidine (DAB) 3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)

to detect Ab (HIV, HCV) to detect Ag 6. ELISA
22
Immunofluorescence Immunofluorescence assay is to use a fluorescent compound (usually fluorescein) to detect the binding of Ag and Ab. The Ab is labeled with the fluorescent compound and its presence is revealed using a fluorescence microscope. Direct, indirect immunofluorescence and indirect complement amplified immunofluorescence

32
FACS separation The basic principle of FACS is immunofluorescence and therefore flow cytometers can be considered to be specialized fluorescence microscopes. The modern flow cytometer consists of a light source, collection optics, electronics and a computer to translate signals to data Isolation of different cell populations by FACS relies on the different expression of surface Ags.
