TRC-00287 | Diethylstilbestrol (DES) ELISA Kit | 96 Well

Product Overview

An Competitive ELISA kit for the quantitative measurement of Diethylstilbestrol (DES) in animal tissues

Diethylstilbestrol is a synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen used in the treatment of menopausal and postmenopausal disorders. It was also used formerly as a growth promoter in animals. It is a well-known teratogen and carcinogen, diethylstilbestrol inhibits the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, thereby blocking the testicular synthesis of testosterone, lowering plasma testosterone, and inducing a chemical castration. DES was shown to cause clear cell carcinoma, a rare vaginal tumor, in girls and women who had been exposed to this drug in utero. 96Trace’s Diethylstilbestrol ELISA kit is a competitive ELISA assay for the quantitative measurement of Diethylstilbestrol in animal tissues, honey, milk, egg, milk powder. The density of color is proportional to the amount of Diethylstilbestrol captured from the samples.
