Description

The Rat follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) ELISA Kit is designed for the quantitative determination of endogenic rat FSH concentrations in serum, plasma, or tissue homogenates. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. Antibody specific for FSH has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any FSH present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for FSH is added to the wells. After washing, avidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of FSH bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.

 Q&A
Q:


1) What is the calibrator?
2) Is the calibration traceable to the RP-2 rat FSH?

A:
Thanks for your inquiry. CSB-E06869r is designed for common rat and its standard is 293 cell-derived recombinant rat FSH protein.
Q:

Do sample diluents and wash buffers work the same? How to dilute serum sample for FSH ELISA kit?

A:

Sample diluents and wash buffers have different functions. And the components in them are also different.
If your serum sample from rat is with high concentration, you could consider using the sample diluent. But you should determine the best dilution factor by doing a pre-experiment first.

Target Background

Function
(From Uniprot)
Together with the alpha chain CGA constitutes follitropin, the follicle-stimulating hormone, and provides its biological specificity to the hormone heterodimer. Binds FSHR, a G protein-coupled receptor, on target cells to activate downstream signaling pathways. Follitropin is involved in follicle development and spermatogenesis in reproductive organs.
