Rat Neurokinin-B PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS0141)

Quantitative immunoassay for tachykinin peptide Neurokinin-B (Tac2/TAC3) in rat-derived samples, supplied by Assay Genie as a competitive ELISA in a kit configuration sized for 96 separate determinations. NKB is a decapeptide neurotransmitter central to hypothalamic KNDy (Kisspeptin/Neurokinin-B/Dynorphin) neuron signaling, where it modulates pulsatile GnRH and LH release that gates reproductive function.

Researchers apply the kit to reproductive endocrinology questions including the timing of puberty onset, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) models, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and pregnancy-related hypertensive disorders where circulating NKB rises sharply. Compatible sample matrices include cell culture supernatants and rat serum, with an absorbance-based readout that fits standard microplate readers.

Reagents are intended for research use only and should be stored refrigerated upon arrival; reconstituted standards and detection antibody components benefit from aliquoting to limit freeze-thaw cycles, and chromogen solutions should be protected from light. The package supports 96 individual reactions with all buffers and substrate included.
