Revvity, TRF3001C, LANCE HCG Detection Kit, 500 Assay Points

Overview
The LANCE® Ultra Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Detection Kit is designed for detection and quantitation of hCG in buffered solution and cell culture media using a homogeneous TR-FRET (no-wash steps, no separation steps) assay.

No-wash steps, no separation steps
TR-FRET technology
Sensitive detection
High reproducibility
Faster time-to-results
Easy automation
96-well, 384-well, and 1536-well formats

LANCE® and LANCE® (Lanthanide chelate excite) Ultra are our TR-FRET (time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer), homogeneous (no wash) technologies. One antibody of interest is labeled with a donor fluorophore (a LANCE Europium chelate) and the second molecule is labeled with an acceptor fluorophore (ULight™ dye). Upon excitation at 320 or 340 nm, energy can be transferred from the donor Europium chelate to the acceptor fluorophore if sufficiently close for FRET (~10 nm). This results in the emission of light at 665 nm.
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone typically detected in pregnancy tests but can also be produced by some cancerous tumors. It is heterodimeric in which the alpha subunit is shared amongst other similar glycoproteins. The beta subunit is unique to hCG. hCG interacts with the LHCG receptor in order to promote maintenance of the corpeus luteum at the beginning stages of pregnancy. hCG is produced by the syncytiotrophoblast in the placenta. The beta subunit is excreted by various cancers such as seminoma and germ cell tumors. Application-Protein Analysis & Detection
