Human C1q And Tumor Necrosis Factor Related Protein 9 (C1QTNF9) ELISA Kit

The Assay Genie C1QTNF9 (also known as CTRP9) ELISA Kit is used to quantify this C1q/tumor necrosis factor superfamily member, which circulates as an adiponectin paralog secreted primarily by adipose tissue. Researchers studying type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, atherosclerosis, and vascular endothelial function measure CTRP9 as a biomarker of cardio-metabolic health, since this adipokine modulates nitric oxide signaling, glucose uptake, and hepatic lipid handling. Each kit provides a pre-coated microplate, recombinant protein standards, a biotinylated detection antibody, a streptavidin-HRP conjugate, wash buffer, substrate solution, and stop reagent supplied in individual vials. The standard protocol uses a 100 ul sample aliquot per well and is read on a conventional microplate reader. Reagents are intended for research use only and should not be used for clinical diagnostics. Components are shipped refrigerated and stored at -20 degrees C for long-term stability, with aliquots handled according to the manual to preserve shelf life.
