Human Dopa Decarboxylase (DDC) ELISA Kit

This quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie measures human Dopa Decarboxylase (DDC), the pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent enzyme that converts L-DOPA to dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin in central and peripheral nervous system tissues. Researchers studying neurotransmitter biosynthesis, Parkinson's disease models, aromatic amino acid metabolism, and neuroendocrine signaling pathways use this kit to quantify DDC protein levels across multiple sample inputs, including cell lysates and cleared tissue preparations. The assay operates on established ELISA principles with absorbance-based readout, is performed in vitro, and is labeled for research use only. Packaged as a 96-assay kit, components should be stored refrigerated and protected from light to preserve reagent shelf life through multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
