Human FA2H ELISA Kit (HUFI04371)

The Assay Genie human FA2H ELISA Kit enables quantitative measurement of fatty acid 2-hydroxylase in research samples. FA2H catalyzes the 2-hydroxylation of fatty acids, an essential step in the synthesis of 2-hydroxy sphingolipids required for proper myelin formation and neuronal membrane integrity. Loss-of-function mutations in the FA2H gene have been linked to hereditary spastic paraplegia type 35 (SPG35) and progressive leukodystrophy, making accurate protein quantification valuable for studies of demyelinating disorders, sphingolipid metabolism, and related neurodegenerative research.

Supplied as a complete kit with reagents packaged in sealed vials and a microwell plate sufficient for 96 determinations, the assay is intended for in vitro research use only. Researchers can apply it to investigate FA2H expression in cultured cells, tissue lysates, and biological specimens relevant to membrane biology and lipid biochemistry. Each component is optimized to support reproducible standard-curve generation across the working range of the assay, with the kit functioning as a research-grade tool in academic and pharmaceutical laboratories focused on neurobiology and myelin disorders.
