Gen 2 elisa

Manufactured by Beckman Coulter
Sourced in United States

The Gen II ELISA is a laboratory equipment designed for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis. It functions as a platform for the detection and quantification of various analytes, such as proteins, hormones, and antibodies, through a colorimetric or fluorometric signal generated by the enzymatic reaction.

Hormonal Assay Protocol for AMH

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
AMH was measured in duplicate by Gen II ELISA following the manufacturer’s instructions (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA). All other hormonal laboratory tests were measured by Esoterix Laboratories (Calabasas Hills, CA, USA): DHEAS by radioimmunoassay after hydrolysis; E2, androstenedione and total T by high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry; and free T by equilibrium dialysis.

Serum AMH Measurement Protocols

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Serum AMH levels were measured in cases and in the two control cohorts in the course of several years by two types of commercially available immunoenzymatic assays: the GenII ELISA (Beckman Coulter) and the EIA AMH/MHS kit (Immunotech, Beckman Coulter). The limit of detection (LOD) of both assays was 0.14 ng/ml. For participants with measurements below the LOD, values were replaced with LOD/√2 (15 (link)). AMH was detected in 8% of cases and 2.5% of controls. Intra-assay and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 12.3 and 14.2%, respectively.

Puberty Biomarkers in Childhood

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Children provided fasting blood samples during the follow-up visit at age 8–14 years. Serum aliquots were separated and frozen at −80 °C, and then sent to the Clinical Ligand Assay Service Satellite (CLASS) Laboratory at the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, MI) for hormone analysis. We measured estradiol, testosterone, inhibin B, and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) as biomarkers of puberty, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) as a biomarker of adrenarche. Estradiol, total testosterone, SHBG, and DHEA-S were measured using an automated chemiluminescent immunoassay (Bayer Diagnostics ACS:180). Active inhibin B was assayed using Gen II ELISA (Beckman Coulter, Webster, TX). Values below the limit of detection (LOD) were replaced with the LOD/√2.

In-Depth Fertility Assessment Protocol

The study was initiated following ethical approval, and all eligible patients who provided consent were enrolled. Eligibility for the study subjects and controls was assessed after evaluating the inclusion/exclusion criteria. For the study group, a comprehensive history was obtained, including details of previous IVF cycles, response to stimulation, and outcomes. Clinical examinations were performed, which included measurements of weight, height, and BMI. Pre-treatment baseline hormone assays (day 2/3) were conducted in all patients encompassing serum measurements of FSH, LH, and estradiol. Serum AMH was evaluated in the same sample using Gen II ELISA (Beckman Coulter Diagnostics, USA). Pre-treatment investigations were done in all women including evaluation of serum TSH and serum prolactin. A baseline transvaginal ultrasound (day 2/3) was done to evaluate antral follicle count (AFC) and ovarian volume. Pre-IVF assessment of uterine cavity (3D imaging, hysteroscopy/4D ultrasound, and mock embryo transfer) and fallopian tubes (to rule out hydrosalpinx) was done besides endometrial thickness measurement (days 14–18).

Puberty Biomarker Measurement Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Children provided fasting blood samples during the early-teen visit at age 8–14 years. Serum aliquots were separated and frozen at− 80 °C, and then sent to the Clinical Ligand Assay Service Satellite (CLASS) Laboratory at the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, MI) for hormone analysis. Estradiol, testosterone, inhibin B, and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) were measured in serum samples as biomarkers of puberty, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) was measured as a biomarker of secretion of adrenal androgens. Estradiol, total testosterone, SHBG, and DHEA-S were measured using an automated chemiluminescent immunoassay (Bayer Diagnostics ACS:180). Active inhibin B was assayed using Gen II ELISA (Beckman Coulter, Webster, TX). All laboratories that performed hormone analyses employed standard quality control (QC) measures, including the use of blanks and duplicate samples to measure instrument precision and identify potential sources of contamination at different collection and measurement stages. The samples were calibrated with standards to determine the degree of bias and implement actions to prevent calibration drift. The laboratories also followed pre-specified protocols for samples that exceed QC activity control limits. Values below the LOD were replaced with the LOD/√2.

Biomarkers of Pubertal Development

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
During the study visit, a trained phlebotomist collected a fasting blood sample from each child for hormone analysis. Samples were centrifuged, separated into aliquots, and the serum was stored at −80°C until shipment on dry ice to the University of Michigan School of Public Health. We measured total estradiol, total testosterone, inhibin B, and sex hormone- binding globulin (SHBG), DHEA-S, leptin, c-peptide, and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in serum as objective but unspecific biomarkers of sexual and somatic development during puberty. DHEA-S, E2, SHBG, and T were measured using an automated chemiluminescent immunoassay (Bayer Diagnostics ACS:180) and active inhibin B was assayed using Gen II ELISA (Beckman Coulter, Webster, TX), all at the Clinical Ligand Assay Service Satellite Laboratory at the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, MI). leptin, c-peptide, and IGF-1 were measured at the Michigan Diabetes Research and Training Center Chemistry Lab using an automated chemiluminescence immunoassay (c-peptide, IGF-1; Immulite 1000), or radioimmunoassay (leptin; Millipore).

A preoperative blood sample was taken during hysterectomy and oophorectomy to assess the serum levels of antim€ ullerian (AMH), follicle-stimulating, and luteinizing hormones; estrogen (estradiol); progesterone; testosterone (total and free fraction); and sex hormone binding globulin. The immunoassay system E170 Modular (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) was used for all hormone assessments except for the assessment of serum AMH levels, where the enzyme-linked immunoassay (Gen II ELISA; Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA) was used. Serum hormone levels are shown in Table 1.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
