Mouse Somatostatin ELISA Kit

This competitive ELISA kit from Assay Genie is designed for the precise measurement of somatostatin levels in mouse serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates. Using a colorimetric detection method with the plate coated with antigen, the kit delivers high sensitivity and specificity for accurate and reproducible results across a range of research applications.

Somatostatin is a key peptide hormone involved in regulating several physiological processes, including the inhibition of growth hormone secretion, neurotransmission, and gastrointestinal function. Dysregulation of somatostatin has been implicated in diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders, and neurological conditions, supporting the use of this kit for studies into these diseases and potential therapeutic interventions.

The assay covers a measurement range of 7.813-500 pg/mL with a sensitivity of 4.688 pg/mL and accepts serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, and other liquid samples. Reported linearity spans 96-102% at a 1:2 dilution to 87-101% at 1:8 for serum, 82-100% to 87-99% for EDTA plasma, and 86-97% to 80-100% for heparin plasma. Average recovery is 95% for serum, 96% for EDTA plasma, and 91% for heparin plasma. The kit should be stored sealed at 2-8°C and not cryopreserved.
