Rat UDP Glucuronosyltransferase 1 Family, Polypeptide A1 (UGT1A1) ELISA Kit

The UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 enzyme catalyzes conjugation of glucuronic acid to bilirubin, steroids, phenolic compounds, and many pharmacological substrates, positioning it as a central player in hepatic detoxification and bilirubin clearance research. This rat-specific immunoassay from Assay Genie quantifies UGT1A1 protein in tissue homogenates and cell lysates, supporting studies of liver function, drug metabolism, hyperbilirubinemia models, and Crigler-Najjar syndrome. The kit is supplied in a 96 assays format with a pre-coated plate and reagents for standard curve generation and sample measurement. Investigators working with rat models of hepatic injury, pharmacokinetic profiling, or xenobiotic clearance will find this assay useful for tracking enzyme expression across treatment groups. Reconstituted components should be handled according to the supplied protocol, and aliquots of prepared samples are recommended for repeat measurements to limit freeze-thaw effects on the target protein.
