Agglutination tests are immunologic tests. Agglutination tests are "dependent on the clumping of cells, microorganisms, or particles when mixed with specific antiserum."[1]

Agglutination tests include hemagglutination tests and latex agglutination tests.

An example is the SimpliRED assay for d-dimer that depends on the clumping of whole blood.
