Rat MAP1LC3B (Microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3B) ELISA Kit (RTFI01417)

This Assay Genie ELISA kit enables quantitative measurement of MAP1LC3B (also known as LC3B) protein in rat samples using a colorimetric readout. LC3B is a well-established marker of autophagosome formation and serves as a primary indicator of autophagy flux, making the kit broadly useful for laboratories investigating programmed cell death, neurodegenerative disease models, cancer biology, and metabolic disorders in rat systems.

Provided as a research-use-only reagent set, the kit includes pre-coated microplate wells and reagents sufficient for 96 individual determinations, supporting medium-throughput screening of rat-origin specimens. Researchers studying rapamycin- or starvation-induced autophagy, as well as compounds that modulate the mTOR signaling pathway, routinely rely on LC3B quantification to monitor autophagic activity at the protein level rather than relying on transcript-level surrogates.

All assay components are supplied in a single-use-ready configuration, and the workflow is compatible with standard laboratory plate readers, allowing straightforward integration into cell biology and biochemistry pipelines focused on rat models.
