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.
When the immune system cause cross linking of cells or particles an agglutination reaction occurs and the responsible antibody is an agglutininAgglutinogens are1. any substance that, acting as an antigen, stimulates the production of agglutinin.2. the particulate antigen used in conducting agglutination tests.
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.

answer it please...
Type your answer here... Potassium is more affected by hemolysis as 98% of it inside the RBC, Sodium dose not affected by hemolysis if the measuring is ISE, Chloride will be affected because there is 45 - 54 mmol/L of it inside the RBC but the affection will be less than Potassium if you measure it by ISE
agglutination
what is the difference between blood clot formation and the process of blood agglutination
Aggregation involves clumping of platelets while agglutination involves clumping of particles in the presence of antibodies.
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.
Agglutination involves the clumping together of insoluble molecules. So you easily this happening with the naked eye. Precipitation involves the aggregation of soluble molecules.
Hemolysis occurs when red blood cells rupture and really cytoplasm into surrounding fluid. Many species of Streptococcal bacteria cause hemolysis and are classified based on their properties. Alpha hemolysis oxidizes iron in hemoglobin, while beta hemolysis completely ruptures red blood cells.
Direct agglutination Passive agglutination Reverse passive agglutination
Pathogenic staphylocci will ferment mannitol, exhibit beta-hemolysis, and produce enzyme DNAase.
occlusive means stopped or so much narrowing . non occlusive means smoothly flow ,no hemolysis
agglutination reaction
Hemolysis
The hemolysis is called green hemolysis because of the color change in the agar.
