Rat dGHRL (Desacyl Ghrelin) ELISA Kit (RTES01112)

Quantitative immunoassay for measuring desacyl ghrelin (dGHRL), the non-acylated form of the orexigenic peptide hormone ghrelin, in rat-derived specimens. Assay Genie supplies this microplate-format ELISA to support metabolic, appetite, and gastrointestinal research in rodent models, where distinguishing the unacylated isoform from the active acyl-ghrelin is critical for interpreting satiety signaling, gut-brain axis activity, and energy balance studies.

The assay produces a colorimetric readout on a standard plate reader, and the protocol accommodates serum-derived, plasma-derived, and tissue homogenate samples collected from rat subjects without specialized extraction steps. Researchers studying ghrelin isoform biology, bariatric intervention outcomes, cachexia, or anorexia models can use this kit for longitudinal sampling designs, and the plate layout supports duplicate or triplicate measurements for robust statistics.

Each kit ships with pre-coated plate strips, detection antibody, recombinant reference standard, wash buffer, and substrate sufficient for a full plate of 96 assays. Reagents are supplied ready to use, and the documentation includes a standard curve protocol with recommended dilution guidelines for rat specimens.
