EliKine™ Human Prolactin ELISA Kit review

EliKine™ Human Prolactin ELISA Kit reviewProlactin (gene name PRL) is a secreted neuroendocrine pituitary hormone that acts primarily on the mammary gland to promote lactation, but has pleiotropic effects in both males and females. Prolactin is predominantly found as 199 amino acid, 25 kDa glycosylated and 23 kDa non-glycosylated monomers. Human prolactin shares only 60% and 63% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat prolactin, respectively, although rat prolactin can activate the human prolactin receptor. Although better characterized in rodents than humans, post-translational modifcations such as polymerization, glycosylation, and proteolytic cleavage can alter the activities of prolactin.


EliKine™ Human Prolactin ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate Prolactin in samples. An antibody specific for prolactin has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any prolactin present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a HRP conjugated antibody specific for prolactin is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of prolactin bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.


EliKine™ Human Prolactin ELISA Kit yielded a robust data set that met current requirements as well as provided a new tool for future use, everything goes well within my project timelines. This was due in large part to the excellent communication and impressive initiative taken by the scientists and product manager who used Abbkine extensive knowledge to find the best solution to my requirements.
