Mouse anti aldosterone antibody, clone 1-33.1 recognizes Aldosterone, a steroid hormone (mineralocorticoid family) produced by the
outer-section (zona glomerulosa) of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland to
regulate the bodies electrolyte and water balance. Aldosterone is synthesized from cholesterol by
aldosterone synthase, which is absent in other sections of the adrenal gland.
It acts directly on the kidney to decrease the rate of sodium-ion excretion (with
accompanying retention of water), and to increase the rate of potassium-ion
excretion.Mouse anti aldosterone antibody, clone 1-33.1 does not cross react with Androstenedione, Corticosterone, DHEA or Desoxycortisol.
