Rat OPG (Osteoprotegerin) ELISA Kit

This sandwich ELISA kit from Assay Genie is designed for the quantitative detection of Osteoprotegerin (OPG) in rat samples. It uses a colorimetric, double-antibody sandwich format and is reactive with rat serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, and other liquid samples. The kit reports a sensitivity of 37.5 pg/mL and an assay range of 62.5–4000 pg/mL, with reagents stored at 2–8°C for 12 months.

Osteoprotegerin is described as a key regulator of bone metabolism that acts as a decoy receptor for RANKL, inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and activation. Dysregulation of OPG levels has been associated with various bone disorders, such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis, making the assay a useful research tool for studying bone biology. The product is intended for research use only.
