Rat Complement Factor D (CFD) ELISA Kit

The Assay Genie Rat Complement Factor D (CFD) ELISA Kit targets adipsin, the serine protease that initiates the alternative complement pathway through cleavage of factor B. This rat-reactive assay supports research in metabolic disease, adipose tissue inflammation, and innate immunity, including studies linking CFD/adipsin levels to obesity, type 2 diabetes, and complement-driven kidney injury. The workflow uses a pre-coated microplate with rat-specific capture and detection antibodies, and the kit provides an eight-point standard curve for absolute quantification. Reagents are supplied in sealed vials and should be stored refrigerated at 4 °C between uses, with the concentrated detection antibody kept frozen to preserve activity through limited freeze-thaw cycles. This product is configured for research use only and has been validated to show no significant cross-reactivity with related rat complement proteins.
