Mouse Collagen Type I Alpha 2 (COL1a2) ELISA Kit

Type I collagen is the most abundant fibrillar collagen in mammals, forming a heterotrimer composed of two alpha-1 chains and one alpha-2 chain, the latter encoded by the COL1a2 gene. The Assay Genie Mouse Collagen Type I Alpha 2 (COL1a2) ELISA Kit enables quantitative in vitro measurement of COL1a2 protein levels in murine research samples. The 96-assay kit format supports laboratory studies of extracellular matrix remodeling, dermal and bone tissue biology, wound healing, hepatic and pulmonary fibrosis models, scleroderma research, and osteogenesis imperfecta investigations in mouse models. Researchers can apply the assay to cell culture supernatants and tissue lysates for absorbance-based quantitation. This research use only kit serves non-clinical laboratory applications investigating connective tissue turnover in mouse systems.
