Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone produced by the chorionic tissue of the placenta. It is a member of the glycoprotein hormone family which includes luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Its function is to maintain the corpus luteum and stimulate steroid secretion from the ovary in the beginning stages of gestation.

Antibody Equivalent Units (AEU). There is a large molecular weight difference in antibodies (typically 150,000 Da) and Base Pair’s aptamers (~14,000 Da). We provide our aptamers in terms of moles, where the aptamer moles in 1 AEU is equal to antibody moles in the typical 100 microgram shipment from a leading antibody vendor. Therefore our standard 2.5 AEU (25ug) or 5 AEU (50ug) delivery is 2.5 and 5 times the equivalent moles of a standard antibody delivery of 100 microgram respectively.
