Réaction immunologique due à la combinaison entre un antigène et un anticorps solubles, aboutissant à la formation d'un complexe insoluble visible (particulièrement net en milieu gélifié). La précipitation n'est pas un événement obligatoire d'une combinaison antigène-anticorps; certains anticorps ne donnent pas lieu à la précipitation, quelle que soit la quantité d'antigène et d'anticorps. 2, record 1, French, - immunopr%C3%A9cipitation
