| Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is a glycoprotein. It is secreted in large quantities by normal trophoblasts. It is present only in trace amounts in non-pregnant urine and sera. It rises sharply during pregnancy. HCG is composed of two non-identical, non-covalently linked polypeptide chains designated as the a- and b-subunits. The a-subunit of HCG is nearly identical to that of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone | | | (LH). A germ cell tumor which is positive for cytokeratin, placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) and HCG but negative for EMA and AFP is probably a choriocarcinoma. | | | Catalog # | C5069-18 | | Applications | Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. | | Recommended Dilutions | Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. | | Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Sodium azide is a potent inhibitor of peroxidase and should not be added to HRP conjugates. HRP conjugates are sensitive to light. | | CAS Number | n/a | | Clone Type | Polyclonal | | Isotype | IgG | | Host | Rabbit | | Source | Human | | Concentration | ~0.5mg/ml | | Form | Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.6, thimerosal and stabilizers. Labeled with HRP. | | Purity | Purified by immunoaffinity chromatography. | | Immunogen | Human Chorionic Gonadotropin beta subunit. | | Specificity | Recognizes intact Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG). Does not crossreact with LH, FSH and Prolactin. | | | Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
