Testosterone, the most important biological active androgen, is derived from peripheral enzymatic conversion of Androstenedione. In males, androgens are secreted primarily by the Leydig cells of the testes, to some degree also in the adrenal cortex. In females, the androgens are secreted mainly in the adrenal glands and in the ovary. Around 10% of the androgens are derived from peripheral conversion, mainly of DHEA. Androstenedione and Testosterone show high diurnal variability. The highest levels are measured in the morning. At the age of puberty serum androstenedione levels rise, after menopause they decline again. High androstenedione levels are measured during pregnancy. In women, high levels of androstenedione (47-100% above normal) are generally found in hirsutism, mostly in combination with other androgens as testosterone and DHEA-S. Androstenedione overproduction is due to ovarian dysfunction or may be of adrenal origin. High circulating androstenedione levels are found in women with polycystic ovaries and 21-hydroxylase effect. Significant lower androstenedione levels are found in postmenopausal osteoporosis. 2 PRINCIPLE OF THE TEST The DEMEDITEC Androstenedione ELISA Kit is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), based on the principle of competitive binding. The microtiter wells are coated with a polyclonal [rabbit] antibody directed towards an antigenic site of the Androstenedione molecule. Endogenous Androstenedione of a patient sample competes with an Androstenedione-horseradish peroxidase conjugate for binding to the coated antibody. After incubation the unbound conjugate is washed off. The amount of bound peroxidase conjugate is inversely proportional to the concentration of Androstenedione in the sample. After addition of the substrate solution, the intensity of colour developed is inversely proportional to the concentration of Androstenedione in the patient sample. There is also a method available for the measurement of free Androstenendione in saliva. The metabolic activity of any steroid is just represented by the free hormone fraction which represents less than 5% of the total. The non-invasive sampling of saliva samples offers another advantage of salivary testing. Demeditec is offering such a testkit in ELISA format with the catalogue number DESLV4780 (please check in the chapter "saliva testing". 上海玉博生物技術(shù)有限公司在為生命科學(xué)領(lǐng)域提供豐富的產(chǎn)品與信息資源方面處于國內(nèi)**地位，公司提供的產(chǎn)品涵蓋了二十多個國家近五十萬種產(chǎn)品，而且產(chǎn)品的數(shù)量與信息在不斷的增長和更新，公司提供的產(chǎn)品能夠使生命科學(xué)工作者加快對生物化學(xué)，分子生物學(xué)，細(xì)胞生物學(xué)以及蛋白質(zhì)組學(xué)研究的認(rèn)知，以及分子診斷和臨床醫(yī)學(xué)領(lǐng)域的應(yīng)用。
