Assay Procedure:

Thyroglobulin is an indirect solid phase enzyme immunometric assay (ELISA). It is designed for the quantitative measurement of human thyroglobulin in serum or plasma. The assay is based on microplates coated with highly specific antihumanthyroglobulin antibodies. The microplate can be divided into 12 modules of 8 wells each or can be used completely for 96 determinations. Each well can be separated from the module (

Target Details for Thyroglobulin

Target: Thyroglobulin (TG)

Alternative Name: Thyroglobulin (TG Products)

Target Type: Hormone

Background: Thyroglobulin (hTG) is a multiple glycosylated, water soluble iodoprotein. The molecular weight of appox. 660,000 Da is shared by two identical subunits. Thyroglobulin is synthesized in the thyrocytes of the thyroid gland and secreted into the lumen of the thyroid follicles. Iodination of the proteins tyrosyl residues lead to the precursors of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Finally the free T3 and free T4 are liberated into circulation, together with small amounts of thyroglobulin. Like for T3 and T4, synthesis and secretion of thyroglobulin is controlled by TSH and TRH. Suppressive medication using the thyroid hormones also leads to lower thyroglobulin serum concentration.
