Mouse Bcl2 Associated X Protein (Bax) ELISA Kit

This quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie measures mouse BAX protein in cell lysates and tissue homogenates using an absorbance-based readout on standard microplate readers. The kit supplies reagents for 96 assays and includes a pre-coated microplate, allowing straightforward processing of mouse-derived specimens for apoptosis-focused studies.

BAX is a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family that translocates to the mitochondrial outer membrane in response to cellular stress, where it oligomerizes to drive cytochrome c release and initiate caspase-dependent cell death. Accurate quantification of BAX supports research into tumor cell responses to chemotherapeutics, cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, and neuronal loss in neurodegenerative disease models. The product is intended for research use only and in vitro applications and is not validated for diagnostic or clinical decision-making.

Reagents should be kept refrigerated until first use; standards and detection antibody should be protected from light, and all components should be allowed to equilibrate to room temperature before running the plate. Single-use microwell strips let unused wells be returned to the foil pouch with desiccant for additional runs within the kit's stated shelf life.
