Human Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 (VMAT2) ELISA Kit

Used in neuroscience and monoamine transporter research, this Assay Genie ELISA Kit quantitatively measures Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 (SLC18A2) protein in human-derived research samples. VMAT2 packages monoamine neurotransmitters, including dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine, epinephrine, and histamine, into synaptic vesicles, and is widely studied in the context of Parkinson's disease, drug addiction, schizophrenia, and other psychiatric or neurodegenerative disorders. Each kit is configured for 96 assays and accepts tissue homogenate samples, enabling evaluation of VMAT2 expression in postmortem human brain tissue, rodent model brain regions such as striatum and substantia nigra, and engineered cell line lysates. The package includes a precoated microplate, detection antibody, calibration standards, and assay reagents sufficient to generate a standard curve and interpolate unknown sample concentrations. Researchers should consult the included manual for buffer preparation, recommended dilution factors, and wash protocol details tailored to neuronal and brain tissue samples. The kit is labeled for research use only and is not intended for diagnostic or clinical decision-making.
