During the Widal Test

Test Result Interpretation
If the antibody against the bacteria is present within the patient’s serum, it'll react with the respective antigen within the reagent and provide visible agglutination (clumping) on the test slide. The highest dilution of the patient’s blood sample that provides a clear agglutination with the Widal test antigen suspensions is that of the antibody titre.
