Rat VIP PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS0168)

The Rat VIP PharmaGenie ELISA Kit from Assay Genie is a competitive immunoassay on a pre-coated microplate for quantitative detection of Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) in rat serum. VIP is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide of the secretin/glucagon superfamily with roles in gastrointestinal motility, neuroendocrine signaling, and inflammatory regulation.

The competitive ELISA format pairs with a chromogenic substrate read on a standard microplate reader, and the kit ships with a strip plate configured for 96 assays. It is calibrated against a standard curve with a detection range of 12.35 to 1000 pg/mL and a sensitivity below 4.93 pg/mL. A 50 uL serum aliquot is loaded per well, and the protocol completes within a single working day for routine screening of rodent study cohorts.

Store kit components refrigerated between runs and limit repeated freeze-thaw cycles of the standard and conjugate vials to preserve antibody binding activity. Intended for research use only, the kit supports studies of enteric neurotransmission, gut-brain peptide signaling, and VIP-mediated hormone regulation in rat models.
