The precipitin test that is widely used for detecting antibodies against fungal infection is referred to as:

a. double immunodiffusion.
b. counterimmunoelectrophoresis.
c. particle agglutination.
d. enzyme immunoassay.


A
Double immunodiffusion is a test that involves an antigen and antibody diffusing toward each other to produce a precipitin band at the meeting point. This method is widely used for detecting antibodies against fungal components found in fungal infections.
