The Access hLH assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of luteinizing hormone (LH) levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.
| Assay Features | • Serum or heparinized plasma is compatible with the assay providing testing flexibility • Wide reportable range (0.2 – 250 mIU/mL) reduces the need for sample dilution, saving laboratory time • Small sample size of 55 μL allows the entire reproductive panel to be run from a single collection tube • Imprecision of < 10% provides increased confidence in results |

The Access hLH assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of luteinizing hormone (LH) levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems. Human Luteinizing Hormone (hLH, Lutropin) is made up of two non-identical, non-covalently associated glycoprotein subunits, denoted alpha and beta. It has been reported that the 28,500 dalton molecular weight hLH contains two N-linked carbohydrate chains on the alpha subunit and one asparagine-linked oligosaccharide on the beta subunit. The alpha subunit is similar in structure for the glycoproteins hLH, hCG, hFSH, and hTSH. It is the differences in the beta subunit of these glycoproteins which contributes to immunological and physiological specificity.
