Rat Neuronal Pentraxin II (NPTX2) ELISA Kit

Quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie for measuring neuronal pentraxin-2 (NPTX2), a secreted synaptic organizing protein of the pentraxin family that participates in excitatory synapse formation and AMPA receptor clustering. NPTX2, also called Narp (neuronal activity-regulated pentraxin), is investigated in rat neuroscience research as a candidate biomarker linked to synaptic plasticity, learning, and neurodegenerative processes including Alzheimer's-related cognitive decline.

This ELISA kit is supplied as a complete reagent set with a pre-coated microplate, standards, detection antibody, and assay buffers sufficient for ninety-six determinations in a single-use box format intended for research use only. The workflow uses an absorbance-based plate reader readout, producing data compatible with downstream western blot, immunohistochemistry, and PCR expression analyses. Rat liquid specimens and tissue homogenate preparations are accommodated by the assay protocol, supporting studies of CNS protein dynamics. Reagents should be refrigerated on arrival and protected from light to preserve activity.
