Monkey Beta-2-Microglobulin (b2M) ELISA Kit

Beta-2-microglobulin (B2M) is an approximately 11.8 kDa polypeptide that forms the light chain of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules on virtually all nucleated cells. In macaque and other non-human primate models, circulating B2M levels are used to monitor renal tubular reabsorption, immune cell turnover, and lymphoid proliferation, with elevations reported in chronic kidney disease, multiple myeloma, and select lymphomas.

The Assay Genie kit arrives as a complete reagent set with a pre-coated microplate, calibrated standards, detection antibody, and enzyme substrate. Researchers add diluted samples to wells, incubate, wash, and develop the enzymatic reaction for spectrophotometric readout on a standard plate reader. The assay is intended for research use only and supports quantitative work in vaccine studies, transplantation models, and infectious disease research where primate immunology is the focus. Store kit components refrigerated, protect the substrate vial from light, and aliquot reconstituted reagents to limit repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
