EID & EIA - Concepts
•EID = Electroimmunodiffusion
•UCountercurrent electrophoresis
•\similar to that of double immunodiffusion with the addition of an electric current to aid in seperation of proteins
•EIA = Electroimmunoassay (Rocket electrophoresis)
•\depends on the creation of different charges of antibody and antigen at selected pH
•\as antigen moves through gel several precipitin bands appear forming Arockets@.
