Rat Lactase (LCT) ELISA Kit

Quantitative measurement of lactase (LCT) enzyme levels in rat-derived samples is the focus of this 96-assay immunoassay kit from Assay Genie. Lactase is the intestinal brush-border enzyme responsible for hydrolyzing lactose into glucose and galactose, and rat models are widely used in nutrition research, gastroenterology studies, and digestive-disease investigations to characterize lactase expression, lactose intolerance mechanisms, and gut-mucosal biology.

Supplied as a pack of 96 assays, the kit provides sufficient plate capacity, reagents, and standards for full experimental runs with standards, controls, and unknown samples. Researchers studying intestinal development, lactase persistence versus non-persistence phenotypes, mucosal adaptation after injury, dietary interventions, or prebiotic and probiotic effects on gut enzyme expression can use it to compare lactase concentrations across treatment groups, time points, and anatomical regions of the small intestine. The procedure is compatible with standard microplate readers and follows standard incubation and wash steps expected of plate-based immunoassays.

Storage conditions should follow the kit insert; reagents are kept refrigerated until first use to preserve binding activity and substrate performance. The workflow accommodates tissue homogenates and other sample matrices commonly prepared from rat gastrointestinal tissue, with sample volumes on the order of tens of microliters per well. Each kit is intended for research use only and supports laboratory professionals conducting in vitro experimental work on rodent samples.
