Bovine IGF-1 PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS0189)

Quantify insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in cattle with this species-specific immunoassay from Assay Genie, supplied as a complete microplate kit covering 96 determinations per run. The assay is configured for bovine samples, including cell culture supernatants, plasma, and serum, making it applicable to livestock growth biology, veterinary endocrinology, and metabolic studies where IGF-1 serves as a central biomarker of the somatotropic (growth hormone) axis.

Each kit includes pre-coated microwell strips, recombinant IGF-1 standards, biotinylated detection antibody, streptavidin-HRP conjugate, wash buffer, substrate, and stop solution, providing all reagents needed to generate a full standard curve alongside experimental samples in a single experiment. Absorbance is measured on a standard plate reader, and quantitative IGF-1 concentrations are interpolated from the calibration curve.

Typical research applications include evaluating growth hormone responsiveness, nutritional status, body composition changes, lactation biology, and developmental milestones in dairy and beef cattle populations, as well as cell-based models exploring IGF-1 receptor signalling. The kit is intended for research use only and is supplied as a single-use pack with a detailed protocol covering standard curve preparation, sample dilution guidance, and recommended assay procedures.
