Rat Insulin Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 5 (IGFBP5) ELISA Kit

This colorimetric ELISA kit from Assay Genie enables quantitative measurement of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 in rat-derived samples, supporting investigations into IGF axis signaling, osteoblast differentiation, and skeletal tissue remodeling. IGFBP5 acts as a key modulator of IGF bioavailability and has been linked to apoptosis regulation in mammary epithelium, prostate tissue, and other systems where aberrant growth factor signaling contributes to disease progression. The protein's documented roles in tumor suppression and bone formation make it a frequent target in both oncology and musculoskeletal research programs.

The kit ships with all reagents required to perform the immunoassay, including pre-coated plate, calibrated standards, detection antibodies, and substrate solution, providing enough material for 96 assays in standard microplate format. Scientists studying bone density changes, muscular development, or cancer-related growth pathways rely on accurate IGFBP5 quantification to track protein expression across experimental conditions and treatment groups. The assay generates a measurable colorimetric signal on standard laboratory plate readers, with each run including appropriate controls to validate standard curve performance and sample integrity. Reagents should be refrigerated upon arrival and protected from light to preserve activity through the kit's stated shelf life.
