Rat Aggrecan (AGC) ELISA Kit

Aggregating proteoglycan (AGC) is the dominant structural component of the cartilage extracellular matrix, and this Assay Genie kit provides quantitative measurement of AGC in rat-derived samples. Aggrecan is a well-established biomarker for tracking proteoglycan degradation in osteoarthritis models, intervertebral disc degeneration studies, and chondrocyte differentiation experiments. Researchers deploy the Rat Aggrecan (AGC) ELISA Kit in connective tissue and orthopedic investigations, where aggrecan loss is measured quantitatively in synovial fluid and other relevant sample matrices.

The assay supports research into joint disease progression, age-related cartilage loss, and skeletal development, making it a useful tool for laboratories studying musculoskeletal biology. Supplied in a 96-assay microplate configuration, each kit contains a pre-coated plate, calibrated standards, detection antibody, and substrate solution, supporting research use only workflows in cell culture, histology, and tissue biology laboratories focused on cartilage and joint health.
