Rat Pyruvate Kinase, Liver And RBC (PK) ELISA Kit

Quantitative measurement of pyruvate kinase in rat-derived experimental samples is enabled by this immunoassay kit from Assay Genie. The assay targets the liver and red blood cell isoform (PKLR), the glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the final transfer of phosphate from phosphoenolpyruvate to ADP, yielding pyruvate and ATP. Researchers investigating hereditary non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia, hepatic gluconeogenesis, or erythrocyte energy metabolism in rodent disease models apply this kit to rat serum samples, plasma preparations, and tissue homogenates. Each kit contains reagents for 96 individual determinations and is intended for research use only. The protocol accommodates rat samples, with absorbance measurements read on standard microplate readers. Common applications include evaluation of drug-induced hemolysis, characterization of glycolytic enzyme deficiencies in red cell disorders, hepatotoxicity biomarker profiling, and metabolic studies in nutritional or pharmacological intervention research.
