Precipitation Curve
Affinity
- Initial force of attraction between a single Fab site on an antibody
molecule and a single epitope
1. Applying current in wrong direction – samples may run off the gel
or not separated
2. Incorrect pH of buffer
3. Incorrect electrophoresis time
4. Concentrations of antigen and antibody
5. Amount of current
a. Weak – incomplete separation
b. Too strong – generation of heat leading to
denaturation of proteins
