Rat Estriol (E3) ELISA Kit

From Assay Genie, this competitive ELISA kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of estriol (E3), a hormone that plays a role in the female reproductive system, particularly during pregnancy. The kit enables researchers to study reproductive physiology and investigate hormonal disorders, and supports work relevant to pregnancy health and potential complications. It is intended for research use only.

The assay uses a competitive immunoassay format with colorimetric detection and works across a stated range of 3.12-200 ng/mL. It is suitable for use with serum and plasma samples, and the manufacturer's protocol also covers additional specimen types including cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, tissue homogenates, tissue lysates, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, and breast milk, each with specific collection and preparation steps. Required equipment and materials include a microplate reader with a 450 nm wavelength filter, multichannel pipettes, an incubator, deionized or distilled water, and absorbent paper.

Estriol is an important marker for researchers investigating reproductive endocrinology, and reliable detection of this hormone supports studies of pregnancy-related biology and the development of potential treatments for hormonal disorders. The kit offers high sensitivity and specificity for estriol measurement and provides a straightforward workflow suited to rat-derived samples.
