German term (edited): Antikörperkomplexe (AKK)
Selected

antibody complexes / complexes of antibodies

See https://www.zhb.uni-luebeck.de/epubs/ediss941.pdf (pp. 7, 52, 53) as well as https://courses.lumenlearning.com/microbiology/chapter/detec... and https://mcr.aacrjournals.org/content/molcanres/suppl/2014/11... ("Complexes of antibodies were fixed and the reaction was quenched as
described above", p. 3).

Please note my low answer confidence absent any meaningful context. (It's certainly not Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer in this particular case ;-))

... which I have asked Nelly for.
neutral Magalie Modert : I also think it is possible. I think the last link of Steffen describes it well with the scheme at p.29. It is the primary antibody and the secondary antibody (or anti-antibody) that form the antibody complexe, it is a common staining method
