Additional Info

Recognizes the Beta 2 epitope of the Beta subunit of the human Follicle Stimulating Hormone. Reacts strongly hFSH and beta-hFSH. Does not crossreact with hTSH, hLH, hCG, alpha-hCG \nor alpha-hFSH. The recognition site is located near the alpha 1 binding site on the human FSH \nmolecule. Not compatible with other anti-hFSH-beta antibodies.
