Human Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 2 (EAAT2) ELISA Kit

Neuroscience and neurodegenerative disease research relies on accurate measurement of the EAAT2 glutamate transporter, a sodium-dependent membrane protein predominantly expressed on astrocytes that clears glutamate from the synaptic cleft. This human-specific ELISA kit from Assay Genie measures EAAT2 in tissue homogenates and cell lysates, accommodating in vitro and cell culture studies of glial and neuronal model systems. Detection produces a measurable color change read on a standard absorbance microplate reader, and reagents are supplied in a configuration supporting multiple determinations per kit. Applications include profiling excitotoxicity, ischemic injury, ALS, Alzheimer's disease, and epilepsy pathways where transporter abundance is being characterized under different experimental conditions. Intended for research use only.
