Mouse Des (Desmin) ELISA Kit (MOES00958)

Desmin is a muscle-specific type III intermediate filament protein that anchors myofibrils at Z-discs in skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle tissue, and tracking its expression is central to studies of myogenesis, regeneration, and muscular disease. The Mouse Desmin ELISA Kit from Assay Genie delivers a microplate-based immunoassay validated for mouse reactivity, supporting quantitative measurement of desmin across diverse laboratory specimen types.

Investigators working on Duchenne muscular dystrophy models, desmin-related myopathies, dilated cardiomyopathy, and exercise-induced muscle damage rely on mouse-specific desmin quantification to bridge molecular findings with whole-organism phenotype. The assay also serves tissue engineering workflows in which engineered skeletal or cardiac constructs are characterized for maturation markers, and regenerative medicine studies that track stem cell differentiation toward myogenic lineages.

The kit contains a pre-coated microplate, lyophilized standards, detection antibody, and substrate reagents sufficient for 96 individual reactions, and the microplate layout supports standard curve generation alongside unknown samples run in duplicate. Intended for research use only, the platform fits in vitro laboratory workflows and downstream analyses of in vivo mouse studies. Reagents should be refrigerated and protected from light to preserve stability across the stated shelf life of the product.
