Rat Left/Right Determination Factor 1 (LEFTY1) ELISA Kit

Built for quantitative measurement of rat LEFTY1, this immunoassay from Assay Genie targets a secreted TGF-beta superfamily member that patterns left-right asymmetry during embryonic development by antagonising Nodal signalling. The kit supports developmental biology projects, nodal-pathway interrogation, and reproductive or stem-cell studies where endogenous LEFTY1 protein levels need to be tracked in rat model systems. Researchers working on gastrulation, axis formation, or TGF-beta signalling cascades can use it to compare expression across experimental conditions, time points, or treated versus control cohorts. Reagents are intended for research use only and should be handled as a standard laboratory workflow, with kit components kept refrigerated and protected from light between runs to preserve activity. Each pack contains the reagents needed for the stated number of determinations, and the format is suited to tissue homogenates and other relevant sample matrices collected from rat sources. Because LEFTY1 is a secreted modulator, this tool is relevant for studying its role in early patterning events, hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis research, and tumour microenvironments where aberrant Nodal pathway activity has been reported.
