  • Title: An homologous radioimmunoassay for coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) vitellogenin, with general applicability to other Pacific salmonids.
    Author: Benfey TJ, Donaldson EM, Owen TG.
    Journal: Gen Comp Endocrinol; 1989 Jul; 75(1):78-82. PubMed ID: 2767411.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes an homologous radioimmunoassay for coho salmon vitellogenin that demonstrates parallel cross-reactivity for plasma vitellogenin of all Pacific salmonids tested (chinook, chum, coho, pink, and sockeye salmon, and cutthroat and rainbow trout), but not for Atlantic salmon or two nonsalmonids: common carp and sablefish. Plasma vitellogenin levels were high in ovulatory female Pacific salmonids (micrograms/ml to mg/ml range), but were mostly nondetectable in spermiating males of the same species.
