Description

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the chorionic tissue of the placenta. It is a member of the glycoprotein hormone family which includes luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Its function is to maintain the corpus luteum and stimulate steroid secretion from the ovary in the beginning stages of gestation.

This aptamer was selected by scientists at Base Pair Biotechnologies using proprietary methods and human Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, [Sigma Part No. C1063] as a target and 1X PBS pH 7.4.  Let us know if you have any questions about its development or potential uses.

Notes

Antibody Equivalent Units (AEU). There is a  large molecular weight difference in antibodies (typically 150,000 Da) and Base Pair’s aptamers (~14,000 Da). We provide our aptamers in terms of moles, where the aptamer moles in 1  AEU is equal to antibody moles in the typical 100 microgram shipment from a leading antibody vendor. Therefore our standard 2.5 AEU (25ug) or 5 AEU (50ug) delivery is 2.5 and 5 times the equivalent moles of a standard antibody delivery of 100 microgram respectively.
