Precipitation test When bivalent antibody combines with multivalent soluble antigen, visible precipitation is formed which is indicator of antigen-antibody reaction. If precipitate remains suspending instead […]
Structure of T-cell receptor (TCR): The domain structure of αβ and Ƴ𝛿 TCR heterodimers are stringly similar to those of immunologlobins; thus they are classified […]
