產(chǎn)品名稱:Prolactin ELISA 產(chǎn) 地:Demeditec 產(chǎn)品貨號:DE1291 產(chǎn)品規(guī)格:96 Tests 產(chǎn)品說明: Special remarks: This product has been 510(k) cleared by the FDA and therefore can be used for clinical purpose also in the US. The conjugate is a murine mAb IgG. It crossreacts with bovine prolactin as well. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Human prolactin (lactogenic hormone) is secreted from the anterior pituitary gland in both men and women. Human prolactin is a single chain polypeptide hormone with a molecular weight of approximately 23.000 daltons. The release and synthesis of prolactin is under neuroendocrinal control, primarily through Prolactin Releasing Factor and Prolactin Inhibiting Factor. Women normally have slightly higher basal prolactin levels than men; apparently, there is an estrogen- related rise at puberty and a corresponding decrease at menopause. The primary functions of prolactin are to initiate breast development and to maintain lactation. Prolactin also suppresses gonadal function. During pregnancy, prolactin levels increase progressively to between 10 and 20 times normal values, declining to non-pregnant levels by 3-4 weeks post- partum. Breast feeding mothers maintain high levels of prolactin, and it may take several months for serum concentrations to return to non-pregnant levels. The determination of prolactin concentration is helpful in diagnosing hypothalamic- pituitary disorders. Microadenomas (small pituitary tumors) may cause hyperprolactinemia, which is sometimes associated with male impotence. High prolactin levels are commonly associated with galactorrhea and amenorrhea. Prolactin concentrations have been shown to be increased by estrogens, thyrotropin- releasing hormone (TRH), and several drugs affecting dopaminergic mechanisms. Prolactin levels are elevated in renal disease and hypothyroidism, and in some situations of stress, exercise, and hypoglycemia. Additionally, the release of prolactin is episodic and demonstrates diurnal variation. Mildly elevated prolactin concentrations should be evaluated taking these considerations into account. Prolactin concentrations may also be increased by drugs such as chloropromazine and reserpine, and may be lowered by bromocyptine and L-dopa . The DEMEDITEC Prolactin ELISA provides a rapid, sensitive, and a reliable assay. The antibodies developed for the test will determine a minimal concentration of human prolactin of 0.35 ng/mL. There is no cross-reactivity with hCG, TSH, LH, FSH, or hGH. 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。
