1. SEROLOGICAL REACTIONS
2. Antigen-antibody reactions Using known antibody/antibodies to identify the pathogen microorganism in the blood (or in tissue samples)
Source of pathogen specific antibodies:
- from vaccinated animals (i.e. horse, goat, mouse)
Using known antigen(s) to detect specific antibodies in the patients serum
4. Precipitation- the antigen is in solution Precipitin ring test (ring precipitation)
- detection of Bacillus anthracis from animal (i.e. cattle) tissues
6. Precipitation Elek-test (immunodiffusion, agar diffusion)
- detection of toxin producing Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains
7. Precipitation Immunoelectrophoresis
8. Precipitation Lues flocculation tests
VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Lab.) test
RPR (Rapid Plasma Reagin) test
