2、antibodies can take place in semisolid media such as agar gels. When soluble antigen and antibodies are placed in wells cut in the gel, the reactants diffuse in the gel and form gradients of concentration, with the highest concentrations closest to the wells. Some where between the two wells, the re

The distance the precipitin ring migrates from the center of the antigen well is directly proportional to the concentration of an

7、iffusing into the gel. .a small drop of human serum is placed in a well cut in the center of a slide that is coated with agar gel. The serum is then subjected to electrophoresis, which separates the various components according to their mobilities in the electrical field. After electrophoresis, a tr

At an optimal antigen:antibody ratio for each antigen and its corresponding antibodies, they form precipitin lines.
