Precipitation ring I rekicuvra ○③ Standards Fig. 1. Measurement of Ag by precipitation in gefs. Ab-containing gel is placed on a glass or plastic surface. Holes are cut in the gef and filed with Ag which diffuses radially out of the weff and interacts with the Ab in the gel Soluble complexes are initially formed but as more Ag diffuses equivalence is reached resuting in a lattice and precipitation. The diameter of the precipitation ning is related to the concentration of the Ag and, using known standards, can be quantitated and compared with the levels of Ag in oth er samples

Fig 2 identification of antigens using gel electrophoresis Ag(Ee.g. serum)is placed in a well cut in a gel and subjected to a Antisera voltage gradient which causes the various antigens to migrate different distances through the gel dependent on their Ag charge. After electrophoresis, a trough is cut in the gel into which antibodies(e.g. horse anti-human serum) are placed. The antibodies diffuse laterally from the until they meet Ag diffusing from its location after elecphoresis of defined standards the identity of fthe ag can be determined
