What are the 2 T cell co-receptors? - CORRECT ANSWER - CD4 and CD8
What are the T cells surface rceptors - CORRECT ANSWER - TCR 1 and TCR 2
Which T cell receptor becomes memory cells and release cytokines? - CORRECT
ANSWER - CD4
Radial Immunodiffusion (RID) - CORRECT ANSWER - An immunoassay based on the
direct observation of antigen-antibody reaction within a gel matrix
Radial Immunodiffusion tests for - CORRECT ANSWER - Antigen concentration via
precipitatin zones
precipitation reaction - CORRECT ANSWER - Detects immune lattice complex
formation: Ag-Ab forms
precipitation reaction - CORRECT ANSWER - Ag-Ab lattice forms and diffuses out of
solution, visibly seen as becoming insoluble
Prozone precipitation - CORRECT ANSWER - Antibody excess
Postzone in precipitin curve - CORRECT ANSWER - Antigen excess
, What is the optimal precipitation zone - CORRECT ANSWER - When Antigen-Antibody
are at equal levels
What could cause toe or more precipitatin bands to form in an Antigen-Antibody experiment? -
CORRECT ANSWER - The antigens are different from each other and this the
precipitation bands will be different and cross-react
