Sample Values

Serum/Plasma - Samples from apparently healthy volunteers were evaluated for the presence of human Growth Hormone in this assay. No medical histories were available for the donors used in this study.

Cell culture Supernates - - Human peripheral blood cells (1 x 106 cells/mL) were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum, 50 μM beta -mercaptoethanol, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin sulfate. Cells were cultured unstimulated or stimulated with 10 μg/mL PHA. Aliquots of the cell culture supernates were removed and assayed for levels of human Growth Hormone. No detectable levels were observed.




Product Summary

The Quantikine Human Growth Hormone Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human Growth Hormone in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human Growth Hormone and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human Growth Hormone showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring human Growth Hormone.

Recovery

The recovery of Growth Hormone spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Media (n=4) 100 97-105
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 108 101-117
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 107 99-117
Serum (n=4) 105 98-111

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of Growth Hormone were serially diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: Growth Hormone

Growth hormone (GH), also known as somatotropin, is a member of a family of growth factors that includes prolactin, placental lactogens, proliferins, and somatolactin. It is synthesized primarily by somatotropes in the anterior pituitary and is stored in secretory granules.

Entrez Gene IDs:
2688 (Human)
Alternate Names:

&#9888; WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including N,N-Dimethylforamide, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Assay Procedure

Refer to the product for complete assay procedure.

Bring all reagents and samples to room temperature before use. It is recommended that all samples, standards, and controls be assayed in duplicate.
  1.   Prepare all reagents, standard dilutions, and samples as directed in the product insert.
  2.   Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame, return them to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal.

  3. 100 µL Assay Diluent
  4.   Add 100 µL of Assay Diluent to each well.

  5. 50 µL Standard, Control, or Sample
  6.   Add 50 µL of Standard, control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  7.   Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process 3 times for a total of 4 washes.

  8. 200 µL Conjugate
  9.   Add 200 µL of Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  10.   Aspirate and wash 4 times.

  11. 200 µL Substrate Solution
  12.   Add 200 µL Substrate Solution to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.

  13. 50 µL Stop Solution
  14.   Add 50 µL of Stop Solution to each well. Read at 450 nm within 30 minutes. Set wavelength correction to 540 nm or 570 nm.
