Mouse TDG1 (Teratocarcinoma Derived Growth Factor 1) ELISA Kit (MOES01536)

Used to quantify mouse Teratocarcinoma Derived Growth Factor 1 (TDGF1) in research samples, this ELISA Kit from Assay Genie supports investigations into developmental biology, oncology, and signal transduction. TDGF1, also known as Cripto-1, belongs to the EGF-CFC family of GPI-anchored signaling proteins with established roles in early embryonic patterning, stem cell pluripotency maintenance, and aberrant re-expression in several solid tumors including mammary, colorectal, and gastric carcinomas.

The kit provides a 96-assay microplate workflow with all reagents supplied as a ready-to-run pack. Each component vial is intended for single use within an individual experiment, helping reduce inter-batch variability. The procedure follows a two-site capture format with absorbance-based readouts enabling quantitative comparison across experimental and control groups.

Validated for mouse reactivity, the assay is suited to researchers studying Nodal/Smad and MAPK/ERK pathway activation, tumor stem cell populations, and transgenic mouse phenotypes. Provided for research use only, it is not intended for diagnostic procedures.
