Human Prolactin/Luteotropic Hormone ELISA Kit | PRL/LTH elisa kit

Human Prolactin/Luteotropic Hormone ELISA Kit

Cat. Num. AAA45811

• Reactivity: Human
• Synonyms: Prolactin/Luteotropic Hormone; Human Prolactin/Luteotropic Hormone ELISA Kit; PRL/LTH elisa kit

• Reactivity: Human
• Specificity: No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human PRL and analogues was observed.

• Samples: Serum, Plasma, Tissue Homogenate, Feces, Urine and Body Fluids
• Assay Type: Sandwich
• Detection Range: 0.625 ng/ml - 20 ng/ml.
• Sensitivity: 0.1 ng/ml.
• Intended Uses: ELISA is a simple and highly sensitive method of analysis that allows for simultaneous and rapid quantification of a large number of samples. The assay is based on the specific recognition of the target compound (analyte/antigen) by antibodies which bind to the compound. The antigen-antibody complex is detected and measured with the aid of an enzyme-labeled antibody or antigen. Upon addition of a non-colored reagent, the enzyme produces a color reaction where the color intensity is directly or inversely proportional to the concentration of the analyte in the sample. This quantitative Sandwich ELISA kit is in tended to determinate PRL concentrations in Human serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, feces, urine and body fluids, and it is only for research, not for drug, household, therapeutic applications
• Intra-assay Precision: Intra-assay CV (%) is less than 15%.
• Inter-assay Precision: Inter-assay CV (%) is less than 15%. [CV(%) = SD/mean x100]
• Preparation and Storage: Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C

NCBI Description

This gene encodes the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin. This secreted hormone is a growth regulator for many tissues, including cells of the immune system. It may also play a role in cell survival by suppressing apoptosis, and it is essential for lactation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.
