Sheep PAG1 (Pregnancy-associated glycoprotein 1) ELISA Kit (SHFI00068)

Quantitative measurement of pregnancy-associated glycoprotein 1 in ovine samples, the Assay Genie Sheep PAG1 ELISA Kit enables early pregnancy diagnosis and reproductive monitoring in sheep flocks. PAG1 is produced by binucleate trophoblast cells of the developing placenta and enters the maternal bloodstream, where it serves as a reliable biomarker for confirming gestation from roughly three to four weeks after breeding.

This 96 Assays kit is configured as a two-antibody ELISA with colorimetric readout, suited to laboratory research and veterinary reproductive studies. Each pack provides reagents sufficient for up to 96 determinations in a microplate workflow, including standards for curve generation. Researchers investigating ovine reproductive physiology, embryo survival, or gestational progression can apply the kit to quantify circulating PAG1 levels at defined time points during pregnancy.

Typical applications include assessment of placental function, evaluation of breeding outcomes, and studies of trophoblast development. Whole blood samples are processed to obtain serum or plasma, then aliquoted to limit freeze-thaw cycles and stored refrigerated or frozen until analysis. The 96 Assays format supports longitudinal sampling across multiple experimental groups, enabling characterization of PAG1 dynamics across the full gestational timeline.
