Drg International Inc Prolactin Elisa
Supplier: Drg International Inc EIA1291
An enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative measurement of prolactin in serum. Human prolactin (lactogenic hormone) is secreted from the anterior pituitary gland in both men and women. 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. The determination of prolactin concentration is helpful in diagnosing hypothalamic- pituitary disorders. The DRG Prolactin ELISA Kit is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the sandwich principle. The microtiter wells are coated with a monoclonal [mouse] antibody directed towards a unique antigenic site on a Prolactin molecule.
