Rat Stanniocalcin 1 (STC1) ELISA Kit

Stanniocalcin 1 (STC1) is a secreted glycoprotein hormone first characterized in bony fish and now studied in mammalian systems for its roles in mineral homeostasis, cellular stress responses, and tumor biology. This Assay Genie rat STC1 ELISA kit is configured for quantitative measurement of endogenous STC1 in rat-derived samples, providing researchers with a reproducible tool for studying glycoprotein signaling in rodent models. The kit supports investigation of STC1 expression in metabolic disease, hypoxia research, and oncology contexts where STC1 has been implicated as a downstream target of HIF-1α signaling.

Researchers use this assay to evaluate STC1 levels in conditioned media from cultured rat cells, tissue homogenates, and biofluids, supporting studies on calcium-phosphate regulation and stress-induced gene expression. Each kit contains a pre-coated microplate, biotinylated detection antibody, standard diluent, and the necessary buffers and substrates for the colorimetric readout at the appropriate analytical wavelength. Reconstituted reagents should be stored according to the supplied protocol to preserve binding activity across the full standard curve.

Intended for research use only, the kit is suited to academic and pharmaceutical laboratories investigating STC1 biology in rat models of disease. The microplate format allows medium-throughput screening of experimental samples, with enough wells for a full standard curve plus replicates. Researchers running time-course studies on STC1 induction should aliquot standards upon receipt to limit freeze-thaw cycles and maintain assay consistency across multiple plates.
