    Product Description

    Detection of the yolk protein Vtg in plasma from juvenile or male fish is a simple and sensitive biomarker for endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) with estrogenic effects in fish. Quantification of Vtg has become an accepted screening test for the estrogenic effects of EDCs in fish. The assay is based on detection of Vtg by a monoclonal antibody, BN-5, which has high cross reactivity with Vtg from a variety of other species including Salmoniformes, Pleuronectiformes, and some Perciformes. This assay is a semi-quantitative assay for Vtg from fish plasma and it is not suitable for measuring absolute amounts of Vtg.
