Rat Uncoupling Protein 2, Mitochondrial (UCP2) ELISA Kit

Quantitative immunoassay from Assay Genie for measuring Uncoupling Protein 2 in rat-derived samples. UCP2 is a mitochondrial transporter located in the inner mitochondrial membrane that regulates proton leak, modulates reactive oxygen species production, and influences cellular energy balance.

Researchers studying metabolic disorders, hepatic steatosis, adipose tissue biology, neuroinflammation, and insulin resistance use this ELISA Kit to quantify UCP2 levels across tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants. The kit includes pre-coated microplate strips, rat-specific capture and detection antibodies, reference standards, and substrate solution for chromogenic readout at the end of the assay workflow.

Standard curve generation with serially diluted calibrators allows interpolation of unknown sample concentrations, and results are expressed in concentration units relative to the supplied standard. Suitable for research use only, this Assay Genie reagent supports studies on brown adipose thermogenesis, beta-cell function, macrophage polarization, and mitochondrial bioenergetics. Each kit is configured for 96 assays and is intended for laboratory research applications investigating UCP2 expression in rat models of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.
