Background:

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulates the development and maturation of both male and female germ cells.FSH is crucial for the small follicles to avert apoptosis. During female menstrual cycle,FSHinitiates the growth of immature follicles and stimulates estrodiol secretion.FSH level is increased a few days after menstrual flow when progesterone and estrodiol are at low level.

FSH is produced by gonadotropic cells in pituitary gland. FSH has anαsubunit that is identical to the one in other glycoprotein hormones such as TSH, LH and hCG. FSH level is evaluated to help diagnosis of problems associated with reproductive system and fertility.

Application:

ELISA: This antibody can be used as capturer in sandwich ELISA for FSH detection in combination with our matched anti-FSH antibody [mouse anti human FSH monoclonal antibody, HRP-conjugated, Cat No: MO-M40050T]. The suggested coating concentration is 4μg/mL.
