Porcine Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) ELISA Kit

A quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie for measuring Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) in porcine samples. BNP is a 32-amino-acid cardiac hormone released by ventricular tissue in response to increased wall stress, making it a useful biomarker in swine models of cardiovascular disease, heart failure research, and pharmacological studies of cardioprotective agents.

The kit accommodates up to 96 assays in a single microplate format and uses a colorimetric readout compatible with standard plate readers. Validated specimen types include tissue homogenates, cell lysates, cell culture supernatants, and matched plasma or serum samples, with reactivity confirmed specifically against porcine BNP to minimize cross-reactivity with related natriuretic peptides.

Reagents are supplied in individual vials and should be stored refrigerated between uses; allow all components to reach room temperature before opening to prevent condensation. Intended for research use only, this ELISA supports veterinary cardiology, translational heart failure studies, and preclinical drug development where porcine models provide predictive insight into human cardiovascular physiology.
