Goat Insulin Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 4 (IGFBP4) ELISA Kit

The Assay Genie IGFBP4 immunoassay enables quantitative measurement of Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 4 in caprine samples, supporting research into growth-axis regulation, lactation biology, and reproductive endocrinology in goats. Each kit is supplied with pre-coated microplate wells, lyophilized recombinant standards, biotinylated detection reagent, and substrate solution configured for 96 individual determinations per run.

Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 4 modulates IGF-1 and IGF-2 bioavailability and has been studied in connection with mammary development, follicular dynamics, bone formation, and metabolic adaptation in small ruminants. Veterinary researchers, animal-science investigators, and dairy-herd studies can apply this tool to monitor systemic or compartment-specific IGFBP4 shifts across lactation cycles, nutritional manipulations, growth stages, or experimental interventions.

Unopened kit components should be refrigerated upon arrival; reconstituted standards and diluted detection antibody should be aliquoted and stored frozen to limit freeze-thaw exposure. Allow sealed plates and working buffers to equilibrate to room temperature before initiating the ELISA protocol, and refer to the supplied insert for dilution guidance, wash parameters, and standard-curve interpretation.
