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.


What is the difference between agglutination and precipitation?

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