The Bovine Beta-Endorphin (BEP) ELISA Kit is specifically designed for the accurate quantification of bovine beta-endorphin levels in serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit is highly sensitive and specific, providing reliable and reproducible results for various research applications.Beta-endorphin is a key neuropeptide that acts as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator, known for its role in pain perception, stress response, and mood regulation.
It plays a critical role in various physiological and pathological processes, making it a valuable biomarker for studying conditions such as chronic pain, addiction, and mental health disorders.By utilizing the Bovine Beta-Endorphin ELISA Kit, researchers can investigate the role of beta-endorphin in different biological pathways and diseases, ultimately leading to a better understanding of its mechanisms and potential therapeutic interventions.

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 condition. 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.
