Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA)
ELISA-based immunoassays enable accurate and precise quantitation of biomarkers such as steroid and protein hormones, amino-acid derivatives, antibodies, and inflammatory markers relevant to various health and disease processes. The Biomarkers SR offers ELISA-based immunoassays for a variety of analytes in biological matrices such as plasma, serum, CSF, urine, saliva, tissue extracts, and cell culture supernatant using commercially available ELISA kits at affordable prices.
Examples of ELISA-based assays:
- Oxidative biomarkers: 8-oxo-dG, isoprostane
- Inflammatory markers: CRP, IL-6, MCP-1, IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha
- Growth factors: IGF-1, IGF-2, BDNF, FGF21, VEGF
- Sex hormones: Testosterone, Estriol, Progesterone, Androstenedione
- Stress hormones: Cortisol, Corticosterone
- Metabolic health biomarkers: Adiponectin, Insulin, Glucose, C-peptide, creatine
- Bone markers: P1NP, NTx, PTH, CTX, B-ALP, Osteocalcin
- Other biomarkers: Oxytocin, Metallothionein, Cotinine
