Rat Matrix Metalloproteinase 8 (MMP8) ELISA Kit

Neutrophil collagenase, the zinc-dependent endopeptidase MMP8 that cleaves type I, II, and III fibrillar collagens, can be quantified in rat samples with this 96-assay ELISA kit from Assay Genie. The kit accepts rat plasma, rat serum, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants as input, supporting studies of neutrophil-driven inflammation, periodontitis, rheumatoid arthritis, wound healing, and extracellular matrix turnover in rodent models.

Reagents are supplied in a microplate format for colorimetric readout, and the kit is intended for research use only. Components should be stored refrigerated upon arrival to preserve activity through the stated shelf life, and each kit is sized for 96 determinations run against an included standard curve.
