Product Overview

Description: Dog growth hormone (GH) ELISA kit (0.625-40 ng/mL) is an ELISA-based in vitro research tool designed specifically for the quantitative detection of GH in dog samples with a range of 0.625-40 ng/mL and a minimum detectable dose (sensitivity) of <0.156 ng/mL. The kit is highly sensitive and easy to use.

Assay Principle: This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. An antibody specific for GH is pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells to bind with the immobilized antibody. After washing, a biotin-conjugated detection antibody is added. Subsequently, avidin-HRP is introduced. After a final wash, a substrate solution is added; color develops in direct proportion to the amount of GH bound. The reaction is stopped, and the color intensity is measured.

Background: Growth hormone (GH) is a crucial endocrine hormone that plays a key role in growth regulation and metabolic control. It primarily promotes bodily growth by stimulating the liver and other tissues to secrete insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), while also enhancing amino acid uptake and protein synthesis. Deficiencies in GH can lead to growth hormone deficiency disorders, such as dwarfism. Research indicates that GH induces lipolysis through direct lipolytic effects in adipose tissue and influences obesity to a certain extent.

Applications: Dog growth hormone (GH) ELISA kit (0.625-40 ng/mL) is used to quantify GH in serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates of dog, providing data to support research in a wide range of areas, including developmental biology, obesity, endocrinology, neuro science, metabolism, and others.
