Chicken Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CALCA) ELISA Kit

From Assay Genie, this Sandwich ELISA Kit is designed for the accurate and sensitive detection of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CALCA), also referred to as CGRP, in chicken samples. It is intended for use with serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, and shows reactivity with chicken CALCA. Detection is colorimetric, with a quoted range of 78-5000pg/mL and a sensitivity of 35pg/mL. Specificity covers natural and recombinant chicken calcitonin gene-related peptide. The target protein, catalogued at UniProt P10286 with a molecular weight of 15,308 Da, is a secreted neuropeptide that induces vasodilation across coronary, cerebral and systemic vasculature; its abundance in the CNS points toward a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role. The kit is shipped at +4°C and stored at -20°C. For research use only.
