Rat BDNF PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS1609)

The Assay Genie Rat BDNF ELISA Kit enables quantitative measurement of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, a neurotrophin widely studied in neuroscience and behavioral research. BDNF supports neuronal survival, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive function, making this biomarker central to investigations of depression, neurodegeneration, learning, and exercise-induced neuroplasticity in rodent models.

This in vitro immunoassay is formatted on a pre-coated microplate and is calibrated specifically for rat BDNF with minimal cross-reactivity to related neurotrophins such as NGF, NT-3, and NT-4. Researchers commonly apply the assay to circulating blood fractions and conditioned cell culture media, with the protocol suited to longitudinal and terminal endpoint studies. Unopened kit components should be stored refrigerated and protected from light to preserve antibody activity; reconstituted standards are best aliquoted and frozen to limit freeze-thaw cycles. For research use only.
