The major hormone of the pineal gland is N-acetyl-5-methoxy-tryptamine or melatonin which is synthezised from the amino acid tryptophane. Melatonin has its highest levels in plasma during nighttime. Its characteristic nocturnal surge appears to encode temporal information such as length of night. Regulation of the melatonin secretion is under neural control. Sympathetic innervation seems to play a major role via its release of noradrenaline. Altered patterns and/or levels of melatonin secretion have been reported to coincide with sleep disorders, “jet lag“, depression, stress, schizophrenia, hypothalamic amenorrhea, pregnancy, anorexia nervosa, some forms of cancer, immunological disorders as well as control of sexual maturation during puberty. Most of the circulating melatonin is metabolized in the liver to 6-hydroxymelatonin and subsequently to 6?sulfatoxymelatonin which is excreted into the urine. The concentration of 6-hydroxymelatonin sulfate in urine correlates well with the total level of melatonin in the blood during the collection period. 3 TEST PRINCIPLE The assay procedure follows the basic principle of competitive ELISA whereby there is competition between a biotinylated and a non-biotinylated antigen for a fixed number of antibody binding sites. The amount of biotinylated antigen bound to the antibody is inversely proportional to the analyte concentration of the sample. When the system is in equilibrium, the free biotinylated antigen is removed by a washing step and the antibody bound biotinylated antigen is determined by use of anti-biotin alkaline phosphatase as marker and p-nitrophenyl phosphate as substrate. Quantification of unknowns is achieved by comparing the enzymatic activity of unknowns with a response curve prepared by using known standards. 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。
