Porcine Superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn] (SOD1) ELISA Kit

Designed for the quantitative detection of superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn] (SOD1) in porcine samples, this ELISA Kit from Assay Genie offers a sensitive and specific assay for research applications. Superoxide dismutase is an important antioxidant enzyme that destroys radicals normally produced within cells and which are toxic to biological systems. Dysregulation of SOD1 has been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and inflammatory conditions, making accurate measurement valuable for studying oxidative stress and antioxidant defence mechanisms.

Reactive with pig, the kit accepts serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids. The manufacturer specifies a detection range of 0.625-40ng/mL and a sensitivity of 0.258ng/mL, with specificity directed against natural and recombinant pig superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn].

SOD1 is a homodimer localised to the cytoplasm and nucleus with a molecular weight of 15,892 Da (UniProt P04178). The research area listed is neurosciences. For research use only.
