Thyroxine Antibody (S-249): sc-52831

Thyroxine Antibody (S-249) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Thyroxine in human samples through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Thyroxine, a crucial tyrosine-based hormone produced by the thyroid glands, plays a vital role in regulating the body′s metabolism, influencing protein synthesis, and enhancing sensitivity to catecholamines such as adrenaline. The importance of Thyroxine extends beyond metabolism; adequate levels during pregnancy are critical for brain development. Insufficient Thyroxine production can lead to severe consequences, including irreversible brain damage in the fetus, highlighting the hormone′s significance in both metabolic processes and developmental biology. Anti-Thyroxine antibody (S-249) is an invaluable tool for researchers studying thyroid function and its implications in various health conditions, including hypothyroidism, where treatment often involves Thyroxine supplementation to restore normal metabolic activity.

The preferred Thyroxine antibody is Thyroxine Antibody (1H1): sc-52247.
