1alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D2 is an active metabolite of vitamin D. It is known that 1alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D2 can be detected in human serum using high-performance liquid chromatography and ultraviolet detection. Vitamin D2, known as ergocalciferol, is a fat soluble secosteroid which regulates neuromuscular function, reduces inflammation and controls cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. Studies indicate that there are monoclonal antibodies that can test for the presence of 1alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D2 via radioimmunoassays.
