Development of an enzyme immunoassay for determination of steroid hormones to improve the reproductive efficiency of domestic animals

가축(家畜)의 번식효율증진(繁殖效率增進)을 위한 steroid hormones 의 효소면역분석법(酵素免疫分析法) 개발(開發)

A rapid, solid-phase microtitre plate enzyme immunoassay(EIA) to determine the concentration of progesterone and testosterone in dairy cow is described. Both steroid hormones were analysed employing antibodies against $11{\alpha}$-hemisuccinate-progesterone bovine serum albumin and 4-androsten-$17{\beta}$-ol-3-one-carboxymethyloxime bovine serum albumin, respectively. as primary antibodies and sheep Ig G as secondary antibody. The conjugated used as labels for progesterone and testosterone was progesterone-$11{\alpha}$-hydroxy-hemisuccinate- horseradish peroxidase and 4 ${\alpha}$-androsten-$17{\beta}$-ol-3-hemisuccinate- horseradish peroxidase, respectively. Detection limit of microtitre plate EIA was 6.7 pg/well for progesteone and 1.0 pg/well for testosterone.

젖소에서 progesterone과 testosterone의 측정을 위하여 solid phase 효소면역분석법(酵素免疫分析法)를 개발하였다. 1차 항체로서 $11{\alpha}$-hemisuccinate-progesterone bovine serum albumin과 4-androsten-$17\;{\beta}$-ol-3-one-carboxymethyloxime bovine serum albumin에 대한 토끼 혈청(血淸)을 각각 항혈청(抗血淸)으로 사용하였고, 2차 항체로서 면약 IgG를 사용하였다. Conjugates로서는 각각 progesterone-$11\;{\alpha}$-hydroxy-hemisuccinate-horseradish peroxidase와 4-androsten-$17\;{\beta}$-ol-3-hemisuccinate-horseradish peroxidase를 사용하였다. Progesterone과 testosterone에 대한 최저측정치(最低測定値)는 각각 6.7 pg/well과 1.0 pg/well이었다.
