Mouse Mucin 2 (MUC2) ELISA Kit

Mucin 2 (MUC2) is the principal gel-forming mucin of the intestinal mucus layer in mammals, polymerizing into the dense net that shields the gut epithelium from bacterial contact and mechanical stress. This colorimetric Assay Genie ELISA kit provides a quantitative readout of MUC2 protein in mouse-derived samples, supporting research into mucosal barrier function, goblet-cell biology, and gut inflammation.

The kit is calibrated for use with mouse tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants, making it relevant for colon explants, intestinal organoid cultures, isolated crypt preparations, and goblet-cell differentiation models. It is widely applied in studies of colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, colorectal cancer progression, mucin-deficiency phenotypes, and host-microbiome interactions at the mucosal interface.

All reagents are supplied in a kit format and should be stored refrigerated between uses to preserve antibody activity. The package includes a pre-coated microplate, detection antibody, calibrated standards, and assay buffers required to generate a standard curve and quantify MUC2 concentration in unknown mouse samples.
