Rat Pyruvate Kinase, Muscle (PKM2) ELISA Kit

Quantitative measurement of the muscle isoform of pyruvate kinase in rat-derived samples supports research into glycolytic regulation, the Warburg effect, and tumor metabolism. This immunoassay kit from Assay Genie is supplied as a 96-assay pack and is intended for research use only, enabling investigators to profile PKM2 levels across experimental conditions. Pyruvate kinase M2 catalyzes the final step of glycolysis and is a focal point in studies of cancer cell proliferation, inflammation, and insulin signaling. Researchers working on rodent disease models can use this kit to compare PKM2 expression between treated and control cohorts, track changes in metabolic enzyme output, or screen compounds that shift the balance between the M1 and M2 isoforms.

Each pack contains the reagents required to perform the assay in a standard microplate format. Samples are loaded directly and absorbance is recorded with a plate reader, producing values that are proportional to PKM2 concentration. The procedure is suitable for laboratory settings where throughput and reproducibility are priorities, and the kit is intended solely for research use, not for diagnostic or clinical applications.
