Prolactin ELISA Kit Background Information:
Human prolactin is secreted from the anterior pituitary gland in both men and woman. During pregnancy, prolactin levels increase progressively to between 10 and 20 times normal values, declining to non-pregnant levels by 3-4 weeks post-partum. Breast-feeding mothers maintain high levels of prolactin, and it may take several months for serum concentrations to return to non-pregnant levels. The determination of prolactin concentration is helpful in diagnosing hypothalamic-pituitary disorders. Microadenomas may cause hyperprolactinemia, sometimes associated with male impotence. High prolactin levels are commonly associated with galactorrhea and amenorrhea. Prolactin concentrations have been shown to be increased by estrogens, TRH, and several drugs affecting dopaminergic mechanism. Prolactin levels are elevated in renal disease and hypothyroidism, and in some situations of stress, exercise, and hypoglycemia. Mildly elevated prolactin concentrations should be evaluated taking these considerations into account. Prolactin concentrations may also be increased by drugs such as chloropromazine and reserpine, and may be lowered by bromocyptine and L-dopa.





Prolactin ELISA Test Principle:
The Prolactin quantitative test kit is based on a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The assay system utilizes one anti-prolactin antibody for micro titer wells immobilization and another mouse monoclonal anti-prolactin antibody in the antibody- enzyme horseradish peroxidase conjugate solution. The test sample is allowed to react simultaneously with the antibodies, resulting in the prolactin molecules being sandwiched between the solid phase and enzyme-linked antibodies. For additional details please refer to the instructions for use.
