Answer to Question 1

To produce antibodies capable of reacting with drugs, the analyst first combines a specific drug with a protein and injects this combination into an animal such as a rabbit. This drugprotein complex acts as an antigen, stimulating the animal to produce antibodies. The recovered blood serum of the animal now contains antibodies that are specific or nearly specific to the drug.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
