What is TSH ?

TSH is a hormone that controls thyroid function. It stands for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone.
It is actually produced by the brain's pituitary gland, but stimulates production of the hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) in the thyroid gland.
 
The amount and balance of these hormones affects almost every physiological process in the body, particular your body's metabolism.
 
 
Clinical applications:
Hypothyroidism
Primary hyperthyroidism
Thyroid function
Resistance to thyroid hormones
Central hypothyoidism
Neonatal hypothyroidism
Differentiated thyroid carcinoma
Serum TSH levels in pregnant women
 
Intended Use
One Step Test for TSH (Colloidal Gold) is intended for in vitro quantitative determination of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in serum, plasma or whole blood. This test is used in the screening, clinical diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic effect evaluation of thyroid diseases.
 
Summary
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is the main regulator of thyroid cell growth and thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion. This 30KD protein TSH is synthesized and secreted by tsh cells of pituitary gland, and it can have negative feedback to the synthesis and secretion process. The fluctuation of TSH is faster and more significant than thyroid hormones when thyroid function was changed, it is a sensitive biomarker of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid function.
 
Principle
The test uses two high specificity and high sensitivity antibodies, the anti-human TSH monoclonal antibody I conjugated with colloidal gold coated on the sample pad and the anti-human TSH monoclonal antibody II coated on the test line. Rabbit anti-mouse IgG antibody coated on the control line. The sample moves by suction of absorbent paper when added to the test strip, the gold-labeled anti-human TSH monoclonal antibody I binds with the TSH in sample and forms an antigen-antibody complex. In the detection zone, marked antigen-antibody complex will be captured on the test line by the anti-human TSH monoclonal antibody II and forms a double-antibody sandwich.
Then insert test card into FIA8000 Quantitative Immunoassay Analyzer (hereafter referred to as FIA8000), the concentration of TSH in sample will be measured and displayed on the screen. The value will be stored in FIA8000 and available for downloading. The result can be easily transmitted to the laboratory or hospital information system.
