QuickStep Mouse CORT (Corticosterone) ELISA Kit

Corticosterone is the principal glucocorticoid secreted by the rodent adrenal cortex and serves as the primary biomarker for hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity. This competitive ELISA kit from Assay Genie is purpose-built to quantify endogenous corticosterone across multiple sample matrices, supporting research into acute and chronic stress, circadian rhythm disruption, adrenal function, and behavioral neuroscience paradigms in murine models. The microplate-based assay provides 96 determinations and uses an absorbance-based readout for straightforward quantification on standard laboratory readers. Validated reactivity covers mouse serum, saliva, urine, and plasma, giving investigators the flexibility to support both terminal and longitudinal study designs. Reagents are supplied in a ready-to-use configuration; reconstituted standards and working components should be refrigerated between uses to preserve activity, and the kit is intended for in vitro research use only.
