Immunoelectrophoresis

Students learn how immunoelectrophoresis identifies proteins using both electrophoretic mobility and antigen-antibody interactions. Serum proteins are separated by agarose gel, and precipitation lines reveal antigen-antibody complexes. • Explore electrophoresis and antigen-antibody interactions • Identify proteins by their electrophoretic and immunological properties • Discuss research and clinical applications • Perform electrophoresis and analyze precipitation lines
