Agglutination involves the clumping together of insoluble molecules. So you easily this happening with the naked eye. Precipitation involves the aggregation of soluble molecules.

What is the difference between blood clot formation and the process of blood agglutination?
what is the difference between blood clot formation and the process of blood agglutination
What is the difference between Agglutination and Hemolysis?
Hemolysis is the degradation of RBCs. Agglutination is the reaction that occurs when antibodies bind to the antigen. Agglutination looks cloudy while hemolysis will be clear.
What is the difference between aggregation and agglutination?
Aggregation involves clumping of platelets while agglutination involves clumping of particles in the presence of antibodies.
What are the viewable reactions in serological testing?
precipitation, agglutination, and lysis
What is a difference between passive and active agglutination?
The only difference between the two is with active agglutination you have a particulate Ag + Ab, since the Ag is particulate, large, when a complex is formed it is visable. In passive agglutination the Ag is soluble so it must first be attached to something like latex beeds or a carrier so when agglutination occurs it can be seen with the naked eye.
Can Precipitation reaction be converted into agglutination reaction?
Ppt. rxns can be transformed to agglutination rxns by attaching the soluble antigen or hapten to an inner carrier like an erythrocyte or latex beads; a process called passive agglutination.
The binding of an antigen to an antibody can result in?
neutralization of the antigen, agglutination or precipitation, and complement activation.
What is the difference between precipitation and perspiration?
Perspiration is sweat and precipitation is rain, snow,sleet, hail
What is the difference between neutralization titrations and precipitation titrations?
A precipitation titration involve (the name is clear) the formation of a precipitate.
What is the Difference between evaporation condensation precipitation?
evaporation is a method to condensing
What are the types of agglutination?
Direct agglutination Passive agglutination Reverse passive agglutination
When antibodies bind antigens the clumping of antigens result from?
There are four reactions when antibodies react with antigens: agglutination, precipitation, neutralization or activation of complement. Agglutination is the clumping process that you are looking for.
