Porcine A-GHR (Acylated ghrelin) ELISA Kit (PRFI00233)

Built around a competitive binding principle, this immunoassay from Assay Genie quantifies acylated ghrelin (A-GHR), the biologically active, octanoylated form of the gastric hormone ghrelin, in porcine serum and plasma specimens.

The microplate-based workflow is intended for research on appetite regulation, energy balance, growth hormone release, and gut-brain signaling in swine models, where active ghrelin dynamics are tracked across nutritional, pharmacological, or surgical interventions.

Each kit supplies pre-coated plate wells, recombinant or synthetic standards, detection antibody, conjugate, substrate, and the buffers needed to construct a standard curve and quantify unknown samples.

Reconstituted reagents should be kept refrigerated between uses, and aliquoted standards help preserve performance through repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Porcine-specific reactivity makes this a useful tool in translational metabolic studies and in livestock production research focused on feed intake, body weight gain, and gastrointestinal physiology.

Substrate conversion is read on a standard microplate reader, and results are interpolated from the standard curve to yield sample concentrations.

For research use only; not intended for clinical or diagnostic procedures.
