Each XenoScreen XL YES/YAS assay kit contains media and reagents for the analysis of 4 test compounds for agonistic and antagonistic estrogenic (YES) and androgenic (YAS) endocrine activity.
Use your own aliquots of YES and YAS yeast cells or order them separately: XenoScreen YES Strain, 1 vial, N05-230-E; XenoScreen YAS Strain, 1 vial, N05-230-A.
