Biologically active estrogen, estradiol-17ß, is an important sex hormone, but also makes an important contribution to the high concentrations of estrogens which are present in malignant breast tissues.
Estradiol-17ß-6-CMO coupled to BSA adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide gel
HYB 057-02 reacts with estradiol-17ß. No cross-reactivity is seen with estrone, esrriol, estrone sulphate, 16-ketoestradiol, 2-hydroxyestradiol, progesterone, androstenedione, testosterone, or cortisol when measuring on tritium-labeled steroids in radioimmunoassay.
Epitope specific for the hormone, no reactivity to the CMO linker
HYB 057-02 reacts specifically with estradiol-17ß with a measured Ka of 3x10E9 in a radioimmunoassay. HYB 057-02 can be cleaved with papain and reduced to generate Fab fragments with a Ka of 13.4x10E9 (1).
