Mouse Slc18a2 (Solute Carrier Family 18,Member 2) ELISA Kit (MOES01759)

Slc18a2, also known as the vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), packages dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine, and histamine into synaptic vesicles in neurons. This Mouse Slc18a2 ELISA Kit from Assay Genie provides researchers with a quantitative tool to measure VMAT2 protein levels in mouse biological samples, supporting studies of Parkinson's disease, addiction, and neurodegenerative disorders. The assay is specifically validated for mouse Slc18a2 with minimal cross-reactivity to the closely related VMAT1 transporter, and is calibrated against a recombinant mouse Slc18a2 standard curve. The kit is supplied as a ready-to-use microplate immunoassay with reagents sufficient for 96 assays. Unopened kits should be stored at 4°C and protected from light, while reconstituted standards and detection antibody require freezing at -20°C to preserve activity. Components include a pre-coated plate, lyophilized standards, biotinylated detection antibody, streptavidin-HRP conjugate, wash buffer, and substrate solution. Each kit is intended for research use only and should not be used for diagnostic procedures.
