Octreotide ELISA kits are designed for the specific detection of octreotide in biological samples. Octreotide is a bioactive compound with pharmacological effects. It has the chemical formula C49H66N10O10S2. Octreotide is an octapeptide that binds to somatostatin receptors, thus mimicking the effects of the natural hormone somatostatin. Octreotide binding to these receptors also stimulates phosphotyrosine phosphatase and activation of the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger via pertussis toxin insensitive G proteins.
