Application
Recommended Usage

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin

1:10-1:500
Application Notes
ELISA: For coating, order Ab without BSA.
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed): 0.25-0.5ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.

Background: Testosterone

Testosterone is an important secreted androgen synthesized from cholesterol-derived pregnenolone. Circulating testosterone is predominantly bound to proteins, including specific sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and nonspecific proteins such as albumin. It is believed that bioavailable testosterone includes the free steroid and the albumin-bound form. Testosterone is the main androgen secreted by the Leydig cells of the testes and affects both primary and secondary sexual development.
