Pishtaz - Model PT-T3-96 - Thyroid Elisa Kit - Brochure

The human thyroid gland is a major component of the endocrine system. Thyroid hormones perform many important functions. Thyroxine (T4) and 3,5,3′ triiodothyronine(T3) hormones circulate in the bloodstream, mostly bound to the plasma protein, thyroxine binding globulin (TBG). The concentration of T3 is much less than that of T4, but its metabolic potency is much greater. T3 determinations are an important factor in the diagnosis of thyroid disease.
