General Cortisol (Cor) ELISA Kit

A competitive immunoassay format, the standard approach for quantifying small steroid hormones like cortisol, anchors this quantification kit from Assay Genie. Cortisol, the principal glucocorticoid produced by the adrenal cortex, is a frequent analyte in studies of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, circadian biology, stress responses, and adrenal insufficiency models.

Each kit supplies reagents pre-configured for 96 determinations, with an absorbance-based read-out on standard microplate readers. Universal reactivity validation supports measurements across mammalian species, while the protocol accommodates liquid specimens, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and culture supernatants — letting a single workflow span whole-organism sampling and in vitro cell-based experiments.

For storage, keep unused reagents refrigerated and protected from light until the kit's expiration. Refer to the enclosed insert for recommended sample dilution series, wash conditions, and incubation parameters specific to each specimen type. Intended for research use only — not for diagnostic procedures.
