Rat MAOA (Type A Monoamine Oxidase) ELISA Kit (RTES01173)

The Assay Genie MAOA ELISA Kit enables quantitative in vitro measurement of monoamine oxidase A in rat-derived research specimens, supporting neuroscience studies of neurotransmitter metabolism, mood regulation, and the pharmacology of monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Monoamine oxidase A catalyzes the oxidative deamination of biogenic amines such as serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine, and altered expression has been implicated in behavioral research, neurodegenerative disease models, and cardiovascular investigations.

Working with rat samples, this kit provides researchers a reproducible immunoassay for studying MAOA protein abundance across experimental cohorts. Each kit is supplied with the reagents required to run the assay in a standard laboratory workflow and is intended for research use only.

The MAOA target is of particular interest for studies examining how antidepressants that act as MAO inhibitors influence neurotransmitter turnover, as well as for translational work on aggression, impulsivity, and stress response in rodent models. Researchers commonly pair this type of ELISA with downstream western blot validation and behavioral phenotyping to correlate protein abundance with functional outcomes.
