About this item
Follistatin is a single-chain gonadal protein that specifically inhibits follicle-stimulating hormone release. The single FST gene encodes two isoforms, FST317 and FST344 containing 317 and 344 amino acids respectively, resulting from alternative splicing of the precursor mRNA. There is evidence linking polycystic ovary syndrome and follistatin. Follistatin binds directly to activin and functions as an activin antagonist. It specific inhibitor of the biosynthesis and secretion of pituitary follicle stimulating hormone
Neutralization:
To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of Human Follistatin (100.0 ng/mL), a concentration of 8.0-12.0 ?g/mL of this antibody is required.
ELISA:
Indirect:
To detect hFollistatin by indirect ELISA (using 100 ?L/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 ?g/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hFollistatin.
Sandwich
To detect hFollistatin by sandwich ELISA (using 100 ?L/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 ?g/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with our biotinylated Anti-Human Follistatin as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hFollistatin.
Western Blot:
To detect hFollistatin by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 ?g/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hFollistatin is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.
The reconstituted antibody can temporarily be stored at 2-8°C. Long term storage at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
