To Measure the Amount of a Small Drug (Hapten Sized)

question 25

Multiple Choice

To measure the amount of a small drug (hapten sized) that is in the patient's serum, can agglutination or precipitation reactions be performed, and if so, how?

• A)Yes, agglutination inhibition can be performed as in PETINA.
• B)Yes, precipitation inhibition can be performed as in PETINA.
• C)No, since this molecule is so small it cannot be cross-linked and thus cannot be measured by precipitation or agglutination
• D)Yes, although this molecule is too small for agglutination, it can be used in precipitation
