Mouse Orexin (OX) ELISA Kit

Orexin (also called hypocretin) is a neuropeptide produced by neurons in the lateral hypothalamus that regulates wakefulness, appetite, and reward-seeking behavior. Assay Genie's Mouse Orexin (OX) ELISA Kit is configured as a competitive immunoassay for quantitative measurement of orexin in mouse biological specimens, supporting laboratory workflows in sleep neuroscience, narcolepsy models, and metabolic research.

The kit accepts multiple mouse-derived sample matrices, including tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants along with conventional liquid specimens, allowing researchers to profile orexin levels across in vivo and in vitro experimental systems. Each pack provides reagents sufficient for 96 assays and generates a colorimetric readout compatible with standard microplate readers. Intended for research use only, the kit offers a practical platform for characterizing orexin dynamics in mouse models of sleep, feeding, and neurological disorders.
