ELISA Kit PrincipleAviva Systems Biology FSH ELISA Kit (Sheep) (OKCA00327) is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay technology. A Sheep monoclonal antibody specific for Sheep FSH has been pre-coated onto a 96-well plate (12 x 8 Well Strips). Standards or test samples are added to the wells and incubated. After washing, a biotinylated detector antibody specific for Sheep FSH is added, incubated and followed by washing. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex is then added, incubated and unbound conjugate is washed away. An enzymatic reaction is produced through the addition of TMB substrate which is catalyzed by HRP to generating a blue color product that changes to yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration read by absorbance at 450 nm and is quantitatively proportional to the amount of sample Sheep FSH captured in well.

Assay InfoAssay Methodology: Quantitative Sandwich Immunoassay
Gene SymbolFSH
Gene Full Namefollicle stimulating hormone, beta polypeptide
NCBI Gene Id443387
Protein NameFollitropin subunit beta
Description of TargetThe pituitary glycoprotein hormone family includes follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, chorionic gonadotropin, and thyroid-stimulating hormone. All of these glycoproteins consist of an identical alpha subunit and a hormone-specific beta subunit. This gene encodes the beta subunit of follicle-stimulating hormone. In conjunction with luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone induces egg and sperm production. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding the same protein.
