The Mouse Collagen Type I Alpha 2 (COL1A2) ELISA Kit is specifically designed for the accurate measurement of COL1A2 levels in mouse serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit offers high sensitivity and specificity, ensuring precise and reproducible results for a variety of research applications.COL1A2 is a key component of type I collagen, the most abundant collagen in the extracellular matrix of connective tissues. It plays a critical role in maintaining the structural integrity and strength of tissues such as bone, skin, and tendons.
Dysregulation of COL1A2 expression is associated with various pathological conditions, including osteogenesis imperfecta, osteoporosis, and fibrosis, making it an important biomarker for studying these diseases and developing therapeutic interventions.Overall, the Mouse Collagen Type I Alpha 2 ELISA Kit provides researchers with a valuable tool for investigating the role of COL1A2 in physiological and pathological processes, offering reliable and accurate results for advanced scientific studies.

Linearity:
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of the index and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.

Intra-assay Precision:
Intra-Assay: CV <10%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision:
Inter-Assay: CV <12%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.
Stability:
The stability of ELISA kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage conditions. Note: To minimize unnecessary influences on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity and incubator temperatures should be strictly regulated. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same experimenter from the beginning to the end.
