Rat Growth Differentiation Factor 1 (GDF1) ELISA Kit

This quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie enables researchers to measure endogenous Growth Differentiation Factor 1 levels in rat specimens, supporting studies of TGF-beta superfamily signaling during embryonic left-right axis determination and cardiac morphogenesis. GDF1 is a secreted ligand implicated in congenital heart defects and developmental patterning, making this kit valuable for cardiovascular research, stem cell investigations, and developmental biology laboratories. The assay follows a standard microplate protocol with all necessary reagents supplied, including pre-coated wells, biotinylated detection antibody, recombinant standards, and enzyme-conjugated streptavidin for substrate-based signal development on a standard plate reader. Each kit provides enough reagents for 96 individual tests in vitro for research use only, and components should be stored refrigerated between uses to preserve antibody binding activity and standard stability over the kit's stated shelf life.
