GH2 ELISA Kit (Human)

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Growth Hormone 2 (GH2) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Growth Hormone 2 (GH2) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV (%) = SD/meanX100 Intra-Assay: CV<10% Inter-Assay: CV<12%

GHB2; GHL; GHV; GH-V; Growth hormone 2; growth hormone B2; growth hormone variant; hGH-V; placental-specific growth hormone; placenta-specific growth hormone.

Plays an important role in growth control. Its major role in stimulating body growth is to stimulate the liver and other tissues to secrete IGF-1. It stimulates both the differentiation and proliferation of myoblasts. It also stimulates amino acid uptake and protein synthesis in muscle and other tissues.

The test principle applied in this kit is Sandwich enzyme immunoassay. The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Growth Hormone 2 (GH2) . Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Growth Hormone 2 (GH2) . Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain Growth Hormone 2 (GH2), biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm +/- 10nm. The concentration of Growth Hormone 2 (GH2) in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
