Rat Prostaglandin Endoperoxide Synthase 1 (PTGS1) ELISA Kit

PTGS1, the cyclooxygenase-1 enzyme responsible for constitutive prostaglandin H2 synthesis, can be quantified in rat experimental samples using this Assay Genie immunoassay kit. The enzyme catalyzes the rate-limiting conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandin H2 and supports thromboxane A2 production in platelets and vascular endothelium, making it a key target in non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug pharmacology, vascular biology studies, and gastrointestinal mucosal protection research.

The kit provides reagents in a microplate configuration sufficient for 96 individual determinations, with an antibody-pair capture procedure read on a standard laboratory plate reader. Application areas include evaluation of COX-1 expression in rodent disease models of thrombosis, gastric ulceration, and inflammatory disorders. The product is supplied for research use only and is intended for in vitro laboratory investigation of cyclooxygenase pathway activity in tissue homogenate fractions and other rat-derived sample matrices.
