Human Excitatory Amino Acid Transporter 5 (EAAT5) ELISA Kit

EAAT5 (SLC1A7) is a high-affinity glutamate transporter predominantly expressed in retinal tissue, where it modulates excitatory signaling in photoreceptors and bipolar cells. This Assay Genie ELISA kit enables quantitative measurement of human EAAT5 in tissue homogenates and other sample matrices using an absorbance-based detection approach. Each kit provides reagents for 96 determinations, supporting research into glutamate transporter biology, retinal signal processing, and neuroscience. The assay is validated for human reactivity and intended for research use only. Reconstituted standards should be handled per the kit insert; unopened components are shipped refrigerated for stability. Capture antibodies, detection antibodies, and standards are supplied in individual vials, and the workflow runs on standard microplate instrumentation.
