Human Collagen Type I Alpha 2 (COL1a2) ELISA Kit

COL1A2 encodes the pro-alpha2(I) chain of type I collagen, the most abundant fibrillar collagen in vertebrates and a principal structural component of bone, dermis, tendon, ligament, sclera, and the organic matrix of dentin. The Assay Genie Human Collagen Type I Alpha 2 (COL1A2) ELISA Kit delivers colorimetric quantitation of this protein to support research into connective tissue biology, fibrotic disease mechanisms, and bone matrix metabolism.

Each kit ships as a pack of 96 determinations and is configured for human specimens, including serum-derived samples, plasma fractions, tissue homogenate preparations, and conditioned cell culture media. The colorimetric readout supports standard curve-based interpolation of unknown concentrations, enabling biomarker workflows in vitro and in vivo. Applications span osteogenesis imperfecta research, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome investigation, pulmonary and hepatic fibrosis modeling, wound healing studies, and tumor stroma characterization, where the kit can be combined with western blot validation, immunohistochemistry follow-up, and broader extracellular matrix protein panels. Reagents should be stored as indicated in the product insert and protected from light where directed.
