Mouse Lipocalin-2/NGAL ELISA Kit

A microplate-based quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie, this ELISA kit quantifies mouse Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), also known as Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL), in mouse research samples. Lipocalin-2 is a ~25 kDa secreted glycoprotein of the lipocalin family that binds bacterial siderophores and small hydrophobic ligands, bridging innate immunity, iron homeostasis, and acute-phase inflammatory responses. In mouse models of acute kidney injury, cisplatin- or ischemia-reperfusion-induced nephrotoxicity, sepsis, and metabolic disorders including obesity and diabetic nephropathy, circulating NGAL rises rapidly, making it a widely studied translational biomarker for renal damage and systemic inflammation. The kit is supplied as a complete reagent set with a pre-coated microplate, ready-to-use standards, detection antibody, wash buffer, substrate solution, and stop reagent, supporting 96 Assays per plate. Researchers in nephrology, sepsis pathogenesis, neuroinflammation, and tumor biology (NGAL has been linked to cancer progression and epithelial-mesenchymal transition) rely on this assay to quantify mouse LCN2 from small-volume samples.
