Human Galectin 2 (GAL2) ELISA Kit

Galectin-2 (LGALS2) is a ~14.6 kDa prototype galectin expressed throughout the gastrointestinal tract and in activated lymphocytes, where it drives T-cell apoptosis, shapes cytokine balance, and is implicated in inflammatory bowel disease and cardiovascular risk research. This 96-assay ELISA kit from Assay Genie delivers quantitative measurement of human Galectin-2 across serum-derived, plasma-derived, and tissue homogenate specimens, alongside other prepared human samples.

The microplate-based workflow fits into immunology, cytokine signaling, and lectin biology laboratories working with biopsy material, cultured T-cell populations, or cardiovascular study cohorts. Reactivity is confirmed for human Galectin-2, supporting studies of the LGALS2 polymorphism associations reported with myocardial infarction risk and Crohn's disease susceptibility.

Storage and handling guidance: keep the plate sealed and dry before use, allow reagents to equilibrate to room temperature prior to running the assay, and aliquot study samples to limit freeze-thaw cycles. The kit is supplied for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic procedures.
