Estrone ELISA Kit
- Created on the 15 February, 2017.
BACKGROUND
Estrone is one of the major naturally occuring estrogens besides estriol and estradiol, it has a vital functions in developing female sex organs and secondary sex characteristics. Androstenedione is primarily responsible for the production of estrone. In men, postmenopausal women and prepubertal children the predominant portion of estrone can be derived from conversion of peripheral tissues. Also, more than 50% estrone can be secreted by the ovaries in premenopausal women. There are many bioassay data which are indicating that the estrogenic activity of estrone can be much lower when compared to that of estradiol.
INTENDED USE
Human estrone ELISA kit is a reliable quantitative procedure for measuring estrone in human serum and plasma. This assay has a minimum sensitivity detection limit of 2.21 pg/ml.
SENSITIVITY
The minimum sensitivity detection limit of estrone using this human estrone ELISA kit was approximately 2.21 pg/ml. The dynamic assay range for this kit is 13.0 – 1,000.0 ng/ml.
