Mouse Caspase-1 (Casp1) ELISA Kit

This sandwich ELISA kit from Assay Genie is designed for the precise measurement of caspase-1 levels in mouse samples. Caspase-1 is a thiol protease involved in the inflammatory response, where it cleaves IL-1 beta between an Asp and an Ala to release the mature cytokine, and it also plays a role in apoptosis and defense against pathogens.

Validated for serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, the kit shows specificity for natural and recombinant mouse Caspase-1. The assay covers a detection range of 78-5000pg/mL with a sensitivity of 41.4pg/mL, uses a colorimetric detection method, and is reactive with mouse samples.

Synonyms for the target include Interleukin-1 beta convertase, Interleukin-1 beta-converting enzyme, p45, IL-1BC, ICE, CASP-1, and Il1bc. The associated UniProt entry is P29452. For research use only.
