Rat BMP-5 ELISA Kit

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this sandwich ELISA is intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of rat BMP5 in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, and other biological fluids. The 4-hour assay uses a pre-coated microplate with colorimetric detection read at 450 nm. It is specific for BMP5 with no reported cross-reactivity with other analogs or variants, and results are read on a colorimetric microplate reader.

Recovery testing in undiluted samples showed averages of 91% for serum, 95% for EDTA plasma, and 98% for heparin plasma, with corresponding ranges of 86%–95%, 90%–104%, and 90%–104%. Dilution linearity was demonstrated at 1:2, 1:4, and 1:8 across serum (88–97%, 88–99%, 82–100%), EDTA plasma (93–101%, 83–97%, 89–96%), and heparin plasma (89–98%, 93–100%, 82–100%).
