Rat Alb (Serum albumin) ELISA Kit (RTFI01486)

Rat serum albumin is the principal circulating plasma protein synthesized by hepatocytes and is widely used as a quantitative biomarker of hepatic synthetic function, vascular permeability, and protein-losing conditions in preclinical research. The assay from Assay Genie supports studies of cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, malnutrition, and drug-protein binding interactions in rodent models.

Each kit is supplied with pre-coated microplate strips, ready-to-use detection antibody, standards, wash buffer, substrate solution, and a complete protocol insert. Allow all components to reach room temperature before running the assay, and limit freeze-thaw cycles of reconstituted standards to preserve binding activity. The recommended sample volume is 50 µL per well, and results are interpolated against a seven-point standard curve. Researchers commonly pair this ELISA with liver histopathology and serum transaminase measurements to characterize hepatic injury models.
