Antigen-Antibody Interaction: The Ouchterlony Procedure

SKU: 270
$139.00

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:


Introduce your students to the principles of antigen-antibody interactions by using the Ouchterlony procedure. Antibodies and antigens form complexes that precipitate, making it possible to assay antibody-antigen systems. The binding interaction results in the formation of a white precipitate after diffusion in agarose.

• Explore antigen-antibody interactions using a classic immunological technique
• Set up Ouchterlony double diffusion plates and observe different precipitation reactions
• Understand the biology behind equivalence zones
• Recognize the patterns created by different reactions (identity, partial identity, non-identity)
