Intended Use
The DSL Active hGH ELISA Kit was developed for the quantitative measurement of human growth hormone in human serum. The measurement of growth hormone in serum is used as a diagnostic aid in the evaluation of hGH deficiency disorders or acromegaly.
Device Story
DSL 10-1900 hGH ELISA Kit; quantitative measurement of human growth hormone in human serum. Principle: sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Mouse monoclonal capture antibody immobilized on microtiter plate wells; serum sample or standard added; anti-hGH monoclonal antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) added. Enzyme activity measured to determine hGH concentration. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output: quantitative hGH concentration. Clinical utility: diagnostic aid for hGH deficiency or acromegaly.
Clinical Evidence
Method comparison study; 41 patient samples; samples spanned low, medium, and high hGH levels. Comparison between DSL hGH ELISA and Nichols Institute hGH IRMA. Results: linear regression Y = 1.06x + 0.25; correlation coefficient r = 0.99.
Technological Characteristics
Sandwich ELISA; mouse monoclonal capture antibody; HRP-conjugated monoclonal detection antibody; microtiter plate format. Quantitative measurement via enzymatic reaction.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative measurement of human growth hormone (hGH) in human serum to aid in the diagnosis of hGH deficiency disorders or acromegaly.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A human growth hormone test system is a device intended to measure the levels of human growth hormone in plasma. Human growth hormone measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
