Product Information
KE00264 is a solid phase sandwich Enzyme Linked-Immuno-Sorbent Assay (Sandwich ELISA). The SHBG ELISA kit is to be used to detect and quantify protein levels of endogenous SHBG. The assay recognizes human SHBG. An antibody specific for SHBG has been pre-coated onto the microwells. The SHBG protein in samples is captured by the coated antibody after incubation. Following extensive washing, another antibody of biotinylated specific for SHBG is added to detect the captured SHBG protein. For signal development, Sterptravidin-HRP is added, followed by Tetramethyl-benzidine (TMB) reagent. Solution containing sulfuric acid is used to stop color development and the color intensity which is proportional to the quantity of bound protein is measurable at 450 nm with the correction wavelength set at 630 nm.

Background Information
SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin), also known as androgen-binding protein (ABP), is the specific transport protein for sex steroid hormones in humans. SHBG is synthesized mainly by the liver and circulates in the blood. Alteration of SHBG levels have been linked to risks of insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, male infertility and other diseases.
