Human Platelet-derived growth factor C (PDGFC) ELISA Kit

Assay Genie provides a Sandwich ELISA developed for the quantitative measurement of human Platelet-derived growth factor C (PDGFC) in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernatants, and other biological fluids. The kit specifically detects natural and recombinant human PDGF-C and is positioned for research applications in cardiovascular biology and related fields.

Validated performance characteristics include a detection range of 78-5000pg/mL and a sensitivity of 36pg/mL. Intra-assay precision is reported as 6.2% CV and inter-assay precision as 10.6% CV. Recovery has been documented for serum (average 102%, range 96-108%) and plasma (average 104%, range 98-110%), and linearity has been evaluated across serial dilutions (1:2 to 1:16) in serum, EDTA plasma, and heparin plasma. The associated UniProt entry is Q9NRA1.

PDGF-C is a member of the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family and acts as a potent mitogen and chemoattractant for cells of mesenchymal origin. The protein is involved in embryonic development, cell proliferation and migration, wound healing, angiogenesis, and fibrotic processes. The kit is intended for research use only.
