Human Ferritin, Heavy Polypeptide (FTH) ELISA Kit

FTH, the heavy polypeptide subunit of ferritin, plays a central role in intracellular iron storage and sequestration of reactive iron. This quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie enables researchers to measure human FTH protein levels across multiple experimental sample matrices, supporting studies in iron homeostasis, anemia, inflammation, neurodegeneration, and hepatic disorders. The kit is configured for 96 assays per plate, providing ample throughput for screening clinical cohorts or cultured cell lysates.

Investigators working on ferroptosis, acute-phase responses, and iron-overload conditions such as hereditary hemochromatosis can profile heavy-chain ferritin dynamics with this reagent set. Each kit is supplied as a complete pack with pre-coated microplate wells, reference standards, detection antibody, and assay buffer sufficient for the stated plate format. The assay targets the 21 kDa heavy subunit encoded by the FTH1 gene, distinguishing it from the light-chain (FTL) isoform that predominates in some tissues.

Intended for research use only, the kit supports standard ELISA workflows and integrates easily with conventional microplate readers. Store reagents as indicated on the package insert and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve antibody binding activity. For laboratory research use; not for diagnostic procedures.
