Principle of the Assay: CSH2 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing an anti-CSH2 antibody and an CSH2-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with CSH2-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the CSH2 concentration since CSH2 from samples and CSH2-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-CSH2 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by CSH2 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind CSH2-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The CSH2 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the somatotropin/prolactin family of hormones and plays an important role in growth control. The gene is located at the growth hormone locus on chromosome 17 along with four other related genes in the same transcriptional orientation; an arrangement which is thought to have evolved by a series of gene duplications. Although the five genes share a remarkably high degree of sequence identity, they are expressed selectively in different tissues. Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms of each of the five growth hormones. This particular family member is expressed mainly in the placenta and utilizes multiple transcription initiation sites. Expression of the identical mature proteins for chorionic somatomammotropin hormones 1 and 2 is upregulated during development, while the ratio of 1 to 2 increases by term. Structural and expression differences provide avenues for developmental regulation and tissue specificity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes
The Human CSH2 csh2 (Catalog #AAA7239016) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7239016 ELISA Kit recognizes Human CSH2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Chorionic somatomammotropin hormone 2 (CSH2), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
