PGF_2α high sensitivity ELISA kit

• Convenient – assay most samples without extraction
• Robust – fully validated in multiple complex sample matrices
• Results from up to 37 samples in duplicate per 96-well plate

The PGF_2α high sensitivity EIA kit is a colorimetric competitive enzyme immunoassay kit with results overnight + 3 hours. Absorbance is read at 405 nm. Simply the most sensitive quantification fo PGF_2α commercially available in an enzyme immunoassay. Assay more samples without extraction.

Prostaglandin F_2α (PGF_2α) is formed in a variety of cells from PGH₂, which itself is synthesized from arachidonic acid by the enzyme prostaglandin synthetase. PGF_2α is often viewed as an antagonist to PGE₂ due to their opposing effects on various tissues. PGF_2α is a potent bronchoconstrictor and has been implicated in asthma attacks. PGF_2α is also involved in reproductive functions including corpus luteum regulation, uterine contractions, and sperm motility. This has led to its use in terminating pregnancies and inducing labor at term. High levels of PGF_2α have also been associated with preeclampsia.
