The Mouse Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) ELISA Kit is specifically designed for the accurate quantification of FSH levels in mouse serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, ensuring precise and reproducible results for a variety of research applications. FSH is a key hormone involved in the regulation of reproductive functions, including the development of ovarian follicles in females and spermatogenesis in males. Monitoring FSH levels can provide valuable insights into fertility, reproductive health, and endocrine disorders.
By using the Mouse FSH ELISA Kit, researchers can gain valuable information about the hormonal balance and reproductive status in mouse models, aiding in the study of reproductive biology, fertility treatments, and hormonal therapies. This kit is a valuable tool for understanding the mechanisms underlying reproductive functions and developing new treatments for infertility and hormonal imbalances in mice.

Note: The below protocol is a sample protocol. Protocols are specific to each batch/lot. For the correct instructions please follow the protocol included in your kit.
Step
Procedure
1
Reagent & Plate Preparation: Equilibrate TMB substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature. Prepare standards, samples (minimum 1:2 dilution), blanks, assign wells, and pre-wash the plate twice.
2
Sample & Biotin-Antibody Binding: Add 50 µL standard or sample followed by 50 µL biotin-labeled antibody to each well. Mix gently and incubate at 37°C for 45 minutes.
3
Washing: Wash the plate 5 times with wash buffer, allowing 1 minute soak time per wash.
4
Color Development: Add TMB substrate and incubate in the dark at 37°C for 10-20 minutes until color develops.
5
Stop Reaction: Add stop solution to terminate the reaction. The color changes from blue to yellow immediately.
6
Reading: Measure absorbance at 450 nm using a microplate reader.
