The hCG alpha n/a (Catalog #MBS530720) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The hCG alpha antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. MyBioSource\'s hCG alpha can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the hCG alpha n/a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.To buy or view more detailed product information and pricing, please click on the technical datasheet page below:
Mouse monoclonal hCG alpha antibody.
Biological Significance: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone produced in pregnancy that is made by the developing embryo after conception and later by the syncytiotrophoblast (part of the placenta). It is heterodimeric, with an alpha subunit identical to that of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and beta subunit that is unique to hCG. Biohazard Information: This product contains sodium azide as preservative. Although the amount of sodium azide is very small appropriate care must be taken when handling this product.
Immunogen: hCG Alpha antibody was raised in mouse using human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) alpha 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 hCG alpha are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as hCG alpha 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.
