HAEMAGGLUTINATE Meaning and Definition

  1. Haemagglutinate is a verb that refers to the process of causing red blood cells to clump together or agglutinate. It is typically used in the context of viruses or toxins that possess the ability to bind and adhere to the surface of red blood cells, leading to their aggregation or clumping.

    In this process, the haemagglutinating agent, such as a virus or a lectin, binds to specific receptors on the surface of red blood cells, causing them to stick together. This clumping of red blood cells, or haemagglutination, can be observed visually as a visible reaction, often in the form of a lattice or web-like pattern.

    Haemagglutination assays or tests are commonly used in laboratory settings to detect the presence of certain viruses or to determine the type or subtype of the virus. By exposing a suspension of red blood cells to a sample suspected of containing a haemagglutinating agent, any interaction between the agent and the cells can be detected by observing the formation of clumps, indicating a positive haemagglutination test.

    Furthermore, haemagglutinate can also be used to describe the action or property of inducing haemagglutination, such as when referring to a haemagglutinating virus or a haemagglutinating agent.
