New DetectX® 11-Ketotestosterone ELISA Kit

ABOUT 11-KETOTESTOSTERONE

Androgenic hormones, such as testosterone, affect the growth, size, and reproduction of many male organisms. In teleost fish, along with testosterone, 11-ketotestosterone plays a significant role by inducing reproductive characteristics in both males and females. In certain male fish, 11-ketotestosterone levels increase during spermatogenesis in spawning season, while in some female fish, levels increase prior to yolk deposition to regulate ovarian development. The presence and involvement of 11-ketotestosterone in other species such as humans have only recently been established, but this area of research is growing.
