Description

Progesterone concentrations measured using radioimmunoassay with tritiated progesterone, ether extraction, and antibody binding assay. Standard curves and duplicate samples used for quantification.

Typical Equipment

  • tritiated progesterone (#337, G.D. Niswender, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO)
  • antibody at working dilution of 1:6000
  • dextran-coated charcoal
  • centrifuge

Output Measurements

  • progesterone concentration (ng/ml)
