The Invitrogen™ Human Luteinizing Hormone (LH) ELISA Kit is a quantitative sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection and measurement of human luteinizing hormone (LH) in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. Optimized for research use only, this kit detects both natural and recombinant LH with high sensitivity and reproducibility, making it ideal for reproductive biology and endocrine research.
Assay Principle
This solid-phase sandwich ELISA uses:
- Pre-coated microplate wells with a target-specific capture antibody.
- Biotinylated detection antibody for high specificity.
- Streptavidin-HRP conjugate for signal amplification.
- A chromogenic HRP substrate to produce a measurable color change proportional to LH concentration.
Key Features
- High Sensitivity – Detects as low as 140 pg/mL.
- Wide Dynamic Range – 156.3–10,000 pg/mL.
- Small Sample Volume – 50 μL for serum/plasma, 100 μL for supernatants.
- Reliable Reproducibility – Intra-assay CV <10%, Inter-assay CV <12%.
- Validated Performance – Each lot tested for sensitivity, specificity, and consistency.
Applications
- Quantitative measurement of LH in human serum, plasma, or cell culture media.
- Endocrinology research focused on reproductive hormone regulation.
- Fertility and ovulation studies in human models.
- Investigation of hypogonadism and other LH-related disorders.
- Drug screening for modulators of reproductive hormone pathways.
