refers to the biological capability of certain substances—primarily antibodies, lectins, or specific proteins—to cause the clumping (agglutination) of cells or particles. This activity is a fundamental mechanism in immune defense, diagnostic testing, and clinical medicine. Core Mechanisms and Factors agglutinating activity
