REAKSI PRESIPITASI
Prinsip
When soluble Ags come in contact with
specific Ab, they precipitate. Precipitation
can be demonstrated via immunodiffusion in
a semisolid medium (e.g. agar).

REAKSI PENGIKATAN KOMPLEMEN
(CFT)
 Ag and Ab reactions lead to the formation of IC that
activates complement system by classical pathway.
 This may be exploited to detect the amount of
unknown Ag or Ab.
TEHNIK IMUNOLABEL
 Prinsip
Specific Abs (or Ags ) labelled with fluorescein,
enzymes, colloidial gold or radioisotopes are used
as probes for the detection of Ags (or Abs).

- Immunofluorescence assay is to use a
fluorescent compound (usually
fluorescein) to detect the binding of Ag
and Ab.
- The Ab is labeled with the fluorescent
compound and its presence is revealed
using a fluorescence microscope.

Magnetic cell sorting (MACS)
 Three basic steps
1) Target cells are labeled with antibodyconjugated magnetic particles.
2) The labeled cells are placed within a magnetic
field.
3) The labeled cells are retained in the magnetic
field while the unlabeled cells are washed
away

FACS separation
 The basic principle of FACS is
immunofluorescence and therefore flow
cytometers can be considered to be specialized
fluorescence microscopes.
 The modern flow cytometer consists of a light
source, collection optics, electronics and a
computer to translate signals to data
 Isolation of different cell populations by FACS
relies on the different expression of surface
Ags.
2) Lymphocyte function assays
T cell function assay
A. Lymphocyte proliferation test
Lymphecyte proliferation is usually
determined using polyclonal activators
of lymphocytes or lymphocyte mitogens.
 T cell stimuli are lectins (PHA, Con A).
 Morphologic counting
3H-TdR or 125I-UdR incorporation
MTT chromatometry
B. DTH detection: ‘OT’ test or PPD test
 Lymphoblast
( morphological features):
 Lymphoblasts are 12-20 µm in
diameter with a round to oval
nucleus. The periphery of both
the nucleus and the cell may be
irregular in outline.
 The fine, highly dispersed
nuclear chromatin stains a light
reddish-purple, and one or two
pale blue or colorless large
nucleoli are visible. The
cytoplasm is usually basophilic,
with marginal (peripheral)
intensity a common
characteristic.

Assays for CTL in patients can be
performed as a variant of a mixed cell
culture using the target cells that
labelled by radioisotopes.

Apoptosis cell detection
Cytotoxic T-cell activity is often assessed by chromium
release from labeled target cells. Target cells are labeled with
radioactive chromium as Na251CrO4, washed to remove excess
radioactivity and exposed to cytotoxic T cells. Cell destruction is
measured by the release of radioactive chromium into the medium,
detectable within 4 hours of mixing target cells with T cells.
Fragmented DNA can be labeled by terminal deoxynucleotidyl
transferase (TdT) to reveal apoptotic cells. When cells undergo
programmed cell death, or apoptosis, their DNA becomes fragmented (left
panel). The enzyme TdT is able to add nucleotides to the ends of DNA
fragments; most commonly in this assay, biotin-labeled nucleotides (usually
dUTP) are added (second panel). The biotinylated DNA can be detected by
using streptavidin, which binds to biotin, coupled to enzymes that convert a
colorless substrate into a colored insoluble product (third panel). Cells
stained in this way can be detected by light microscopy, as shown in the
photograph of apoptotic cells (stained red) in the thymic cortex. Photograph
