Product Information
KE30009 is a vitro competitive binding enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Competitive ELISA). The testosterone ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of vitro testosterone. A 96-well plate has been precoated with Testosterone antigen. Samples and the antibody-HRP conjugate are added to the wells, where testosterone in the sample competes with the testosterone antigen immobilized on the microplate for binding with the antibody-HRP. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound material and TMB substrate is then added which is catalyzed by HRP to produce blue coloration. The reaction is terminated by addition of Stop Solution which stops the color development and produces a color change from blue to yellow. The intensity of signal is inversely proportional to the amount of Testosterone in the sample and the intensity is measured at 450 nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm.

Background Information
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone (androgen) and is crucial for the development of male reproductive tissues, as well as for promoting secondary sexual characteristics. While it is produced in much larger amounts in men, it is also an important hormone for women, playing a key role in libido, bone strength, and muscle maintenance.

FAQ
1、我的样本稀释液有限,如何处理稀释倍数较大的样本?
我们建议您对样本进行梯度稀释。例如,人血清样本需要1000000倍稀释时,您可以分3个梯度,每个梯度100倍,进行稀释:
第一步:取2 uL人血清样本,加入198 uL样本稀释液,混匀得到100倍稀释的人血清样本
第二步:取2uL 100倍稀释的人血清样本+ 198 uL样本稀释液进行稀释,混匀得到10000倍稀释的人血清样本
第三步:取2uL 10000倍稀释的人血清样本+ 198 uL样本稀释液进行稀释,混匀得到1000000倍稀释的人血清样本。
如果样本需要进一步稀释,您可以使用更多梯度。除了我们推荐的样本稀释液,不建议您使用其他溶液或者水稀释。如果您的样本稀释液仍然不足,请联系我们的客服为您提供更多样本稀释液。
