Progesterone (human) ELISA Kit

Progesterone (human) ELISA Kitis available at Gentaur for Next week Delivery.

Sensitive, Colorimetric Assay.

Description:

Progesterone is a C21 steroid which is synthesized from both tissue and circulating cholesterol. In males, progesterone is a necessary intermediate for the production of corticosteroids and androgens. In females, progesterone remains relatively constant throughout the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. The concentration then increases rapidly following ovulation and remains elevated for 4-6 days and decreases to the initial level 24 hours before the onset of menstruation. In pregnancy, placental progesterone production rises steadily to levels of 10 to 20 times those of the luteal phase peak. Progesterone measurements are thus performed to determine ovulation as well as to characterize luteal phase defects. Monitoring of progesterone therapy and early stage pregnancy evaluations comprise the remaining uses of progesterone assays. BioVision’s Progesterone kit is a solid phase competitive ELISA Kit. The samples, and Progesterone enzyme conjugate are added to the wells coated with anti-Progesterone monoclonal antibody. Progesterone in the sample competes with a Progesterone enzyme conjugate for binding sites. Unbound Progesterone and Progesterone enzyme conjugate is washed off by wash buffer. Upon the addition of the substrate, the intensity of color is inversely proportional to the concentration of Progesterone in the samples. A standard curve is prepared relating color intensity to the concentration of the Progesterone.

Applications: This ELISA kit is used for quantitative protein detection, establishing normal range.
