A direct radioimmunoassay for estriol-16-glucuronide in urine for monitoring pregnancy and induction of ovulation. 1977

R V Haning, and K P Satin, and M T Lynskey, and R M Levin, and L Speroff

Antibodies to estriol-16alpha-[beta-D-glucuronide] were raised in sheep with the use of keyhold limpet hemocyanin and bovine serum albumin conjugates of estriol-16alpha-[beta-D-glucuronide]. A simple, rapid method is presented for direct radioimmunoassay of estriol-16alpha-[beta-D-glucuronide] in urine with dextran-coated charcoal used for separation of free from bound and deionized water used for dilutions. The method is thrifty in its use of reagents. The assay has been evaluated in the pregnancy range, and the sensitivity has been extended into the range necessary for monitoring induction of ovulation with Pergonal.

D010060 Ovulation The discharge of an OVUM from a rupturing follicle in the OVARY. Ovulations
D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies
D011863 Radioimmunoassay Classic quantitative assay for detection of antigen-antibody reactions using a radioactively labeled substance (radioligand) either directly or indirectly to measure the binding of the unlabeled substance to a specific antibody or other receptor system. Non-immunogenic substances (e.g., haptens) can be measured if coupled to larger carrier proteins (e.g., bovine gamma-globulin or human serum albumin) capable of inducing antibody formation.

D004964 Estriol A hydroxylated metabolite of ESTRADIOL or ESTRONE that has a hydroxyl group at C3, 16-alpha, and 17-beta position. Estriol is a major urinary estrogen. During PREGNANCY, a large amount of estriol is produced by the PLACENTA. Isomers with inversion of the hydroxyl group or groups are called epiestriol.
