Mouse Relaxin-3 (Rln3) ELISA Kit

Designed by Assay Genie for the quantitative detection of mouse Relaxin-3 (RLN3), this Sandwich ELISA is intended for use with serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernatants and other biological fluids. The kit shows reactivity with mouse samples and is specific for natural and recombinant mouse Relaxin-3. Synonyms listed for the target include Insulin-like peptide INSL7, Prorelaxin M3, Insulin-like peptide 7 and Insl7.

Performance characteristics include a detection range of 31.2-2000pg/mL and a sensitivity of 15.6pg/mL. Reported precision values are an intra-assay CV of 6.5% and an inter-assay CV of 11.2%. Recovery is documented at an average of 104% for serum (range 98-110%) and 106% for plasma (range 100-112%).

Relaxin-3 is described as a neuropeptide that plays a critical role in regulating stress responses, feeding behavior and arousal, and may play a role in neuropeptide signaling processes. The protein is a secreted heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two disulfide bonds, and acts as a ligand for LGR7, relaxin-3 receptor-1 and relaxin-3 receptor-2. It is associated with the Signal Transduction research area. The kit is labelled for research use only.
