Rabbit polyclonal Epitestosterone antibody.
Biological Significance: Epitestosterone is a natural steroid, an inactive epimer of the hormone testosterone. Structurally, it differs from testosterone only in the configuration at the OH-bearing carbon, C17. Epitestosterone is believed to form in a similar way to testosterone; a 1993 study found that around 50% of epitestosterone production in human males can be ascribed to the testis, although the exact pathway of its formation is still the subject of research. It has been shown to accumulate in mammary cyst fluid and in the prostate. Cross-Reactivity: Testosterone (4-Andostren-17b-ol-3-one)�< 1%, Delta-5- Androsten-3 Beta,17 Beta-dione: < 0.3%, 5 a Dihydrotestosterone <15%, Delta-1-Testosterone < 0.2%, Aldosterone < 4.5%, Hydrocortisone < 0.015%, Progesterone < 1.0%
Immunogen: Epitestosterone antibody was raised in rabbit using protein-3-oxime-epitestosterone conjugate as the immunogen. In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing Epitestosterone are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as Epitestosterone may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results.
