Human Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) ELISA Kit

CGRP is a 37-amino acid neuropeptide widely studied in migraine pathogenesis, neurogenic inflammation, and cardiovascular research. This competitive ELISA kit from Assay Genie quantifies human calcitonin gene related peptide across diverse sample matrices, supporting translational studies in neurology, pain signaling, and vascular biology.

The assay accommodates 96 determinations per plate, accepting tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernatants, and matched human plasma or serum specimens. Researchers investigating trigeminovascular activation, neuropeptide release kinetics, or therapeutic targeting of the CGRP pathway will find this format well matched to both pilot work and larger screening studies.

Storage and handling: keep the kit refrigerated upon receipt to preserve antibody and conjugate activity through the stated shelf life. Reconstituted standards and samples are best aliquoted to limit freeze-thaw cycles, which can degrade the peptide and compromise quantitation.

Applications include biomarker discovery in migraine research, mechanistic studies of vasodilation, and in vitro characterization of CGRP release from cultured sensory neurons. The competitive binding architecture makes it appropriate for measuring small native peptides without requiring large sample volumes.
