ELISA Kit PrincipleAviva Systems Biology Testosterone ELISA Kit (OKEH02537) is based on a competitive enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter well-plate in this kit has been pre-coated with an anti-Testosterone antibody. Sample or standards are added to the wells along with a fixed quantity of biotinylated Testosterone and incubated. The Testosterone found in the sample or standards competes with the biotinylated Testosterone for limited binding sites on the immobilized anti-Testosterone antibody. Excess unbound biotinylated Testosterone and sample or standard Testosterone is washed from the plate. Avidin-HRP conjugate is added, incubated and washed. An enzymatic reaction is then produced through the addition of TMB substrate which is catalyzed by the immobilized HRP to generate a blue color product that changes yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow coloration is measured by reading the absorbance at 450 nm which is quantitatively proportional to the amount of biotinylated Testosterone captured in the well and inversely proportional to the amount of Testosterone which was contained in the sample or standard.

Description of TargetTestosterone is a steroid hormone from the androgen group and is found in mammals, reptiles, birds, and other vertebrates. In mammals, testosterone is primarily secreted in the testes of males and the ovaries of females, although small amounts are also secreted by the adrenal glands. It is the principal male sex hormone and an anabolic steroid.
