Human Matrix Metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13) ELISA Kit

MMP13, also known as collagenase 3, is a zinc-dependent endopeptidase that cleaves type II collagen and other extracellular matrix components, making it a key target in studies of cartilage turnover, osteoarthritis progression, and connective tissue remodeling. This Assay Genie kit provides a quantitative colorimetric immunoassay for measuring human MMP13 protein across multiple specimen types, including tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants. The package contains a microplate and all reagents required for standard curve generation and sample measurement, supplied in a 96 assays format. Researchers in rheumatology, oncology, and bone and cartilage biology commonly use this kit to monitor MMP13 expression in disease models and intervention studies, where MMP13 serves as a biomarker of matrix degradation activity. Each kit is intended for research use only and requires refrigerated storage to preserve antibody binding performance and reagent stability.
