Mouse MMP-12 PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS1481)

This quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie enables researchers to measure mouse matrix metalloproteinase 12 (MMP-12), also known as macrophage elastase, in mouse-derived samples. MMP-12 is a zinc-dependent endopeptidase that degrades elastin and other extracellular matrix components, and it is widely investigated in pulmonary inflammation, emphysema, and atherosclerosis models as well as in wound-healing research.

The kit is supplied in a 96 assays format and is intended for research use only. It is validated for reactivity with mouse samples, making it appropriate for studies using murine disease models, including investigations of macrophage activity, tissue remodeling, and inflammatory signaling. Each kit includes the reagents needed to generate a standard curve and quantify MMP-12 levels, supporting applications in pharmacology, biomarker discovery, and preclinical drug development.

Validated sample types include cell culture supernatants, plasma, and serum collected from mouse studies, allowing researchers to track MMP-12 expression under different experimental conditions, evaluate the effects of candidate compounds on elastase secretion, or compare MMP-12 levels across treatment groups. The Assay Genie platform provides consistent lot-to-lot performance and detailed protocol documentation to support reproducible results in academic and industrial research settings.
