DES (Diethylstilbestrol) ELISA Kit

Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen historically used in livestock production, and residue monitoring in foods of animal origin remains a regulatory priority. This competitive immunoassay from Assay Genie supports routine screening workflows in food safety laboratories, delivering quantitative results without the need for expensive instrumentation beyond a standard microplate reader.

• Quantitative detection range: 0.1 to 10 ppb, suitable for tissue residue analysis in compliance testing programs.
• Sensitivity: 0.05 ppb under standard assay conditions.
• Sample volume: 50 uL of clarified tissue homogenate per determination.
• Validated matrices include muscle from fish and shrimp, muscle from livestock, and liver.
• Each kit provides microplate strips pre-coated with DES-specific antibodies for competitive binding.
• Approximate run time: 90 minutes from sample addition to result.
• Six calibrators generate a standard curve suitable for interpolation of unknown samples.
• For research use only; intended for laboratory testing of food samples and not for clinical diagnostic procedures.
• Reagent storage: refrigerate on receipt; protect antibody strips from light and avoid freeze-thaw cycles to preserve activity.
