It causes pathogens to stick together.

What is the process by which an antibody binds to an antigen?
The process by which an antibody binds to an antigen is called antigen-antibody binding. This occurs when the antibody recognizes and attaches to a specific part of the antigen, forming a complex that helps the immune system identify and neutralize the antigen.
What happens when an antigen and its matching antibody meet up in your body?
When an antigen and its matching antibody meet in the body, the antibody binds to the antigen, marking it for destruction by the immune system. This process helps to neutralize the antigen and prevent further harm to the body.
Which portion of the antibody binds to the antigen?
Epitope, it is the part of the antigen that is recognized and binds by the antibodies.
What Is the difference between antigen binding site and paratope?
Antigen binding site or epitope is a part of an antigen that is recognized by the antibody. Paratope is a part of an antibody that binds on epitope.
Which antibody function binds antibodies to soluble antigen molecules?
precipitation
What is a synonym for antigenic determinant?
It is the place where antibody binds after recognizing the antigen
What is Antigen A?
An antigen is actually foreign or toxic to the human body. It stimulates an adaptive immune response and binds to a antibody.
An antibody oponizes invading organisms is in order to enhance the function of?
To enhance the function of phagocytosis. The antibody binds to the antigen (on the organism). The antibody also binds to the phagocyte thus facilitating the coming together of the antibody and phagocyte and phagocytosis can then proceed.
What are the differences between sandwich ELISA and indirect ELISA?
Sandwich ELISA directly detects the antigen using two antibodies, while indirect ELISA detects the antigen using a primary antibody and a secondary antibody that binds to the primary antibody.
Is glycoprotein an antigen or antibody?
Antibody
What region of an antibody does the antigen bind to?
epitopes on the antigen while the paratopes on the antibody
What happens to the antibody levels when vacniated?
Vaccination introduces foreign antigen and the body responds by producing antibodies for that specific antigen. So overall levels of antibody may not considerably increase, but antibodies specific for that antigen will increase dramatically.
