Mouse Actin, aortic smooth muscle (Acta2) ELISA Kit

Designed for the precise and accurate detection of ACTA2 levels in mouse serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants, this Sandwich ELISA from Assay Genie offers high sensitivity and specificity for research into cardiovascular health and disease. ACTA2 is a key protein involved in smooth muscle contraction and maintenance of vascular tone in blood vessels, and changes in its levels have been linked to disorders such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, and vascular fibrosis, making it a valuable biomarker for studying these conditions and exploring potential therapeutic interventions.

Validated for use with mouse samples, including serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates, and other biological fluids, the assay uses a colorimetric detection method. Performance characteristics include a detection range of 1.56-100ng/mL, a sensitivity of 0.795ng/mL, an intra-assay CV of 5.6%, and an inter-assay CV of 8.6%. The kit demonstrates consistent linearity and recovery across serum, EDTA plasma, and heparin plasma samples, and is specific for natural and recombinant mouse Actin, aortic smooth muscle (UniProt: P62737).
