The Rabbit Prolactin ELISA Kit is a reliable and accurate tool for the quantitative measurement of prolactin levels in rabbit serum, plasma, and tissue culture supernatants. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, providing researchers with dependable and reproducible results for a variety of experimental applications. Prolactin is a key hormone involved in various physiological processes, including lactation, reproduction, and metabolism. Dysregulation of prolactin levels has been linked to conditions such as infertility, pituitary disorders, and breast cancer.
By accurately quantifying prolactin levels, this ELISA kit can help researchers better understand the role of prolactin in health and disease, and potentially develop new therapeutic approaches for prolactin-related disorders. The Rabbit Prolactin ELISA Kit from Assay Genie is a valuable tool for researchers working in the fields of endocrinology, reproductive biology, and oncology. With its high performance and ease of use, this kit is a must-have for studying the complex functions of prolactin in rabbit models.

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.
