TSH (human) ELISA kit

• Sensitive measurement of TSH, detecting as little as 0.5 µIU/ml
• Negligible reactivity from similar glycoprotein hormones
• High throughput format with results in 75 minutes
• Fully quantitative results that surpass semi-quantitative Western blot analysis

The TSH ELISA kit is a colorimetric immunometric immunoassay kit with results in 75 minutes.

TSH is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the anterior pituitary gland and regulates the synthesis and release of T₃ and T₄ by the thyroid gland. TSH has two subunits, α and β. The β unit gives rise to its biological activity.  Serum TSH measurement is one of the most important tools in the diagnosis of thyroid disorders. Increased serum TSH is an early and sensitive indicator of decreased thyroid reserve and overt primary hypothyroidism. Decreased TSH level is an indicator of TSH-independent hyperthyroidism (Graves’ disease).
