The Human Cystatin-1 (CST1) ELISA Kit is specifically designed for the precise measurement of cystatin-1 levels in human biological samples such as serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit offers exceptional sensitivity and specificity, ensuring accurate and reproducible results for various research purposes. Cystatin-1 is a vital protein that functions as an inhibitor of cysteine proteases, playing a crucial role in regulating protease activity and maintaining cellular homeostasis. Dysregulation of cystatin-1 has been associated with various diseases, including inflammatory disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative conditions.
Therefore, the Human Cystatin-1 ELISA Kit serves as a valuable tool for studying the role of cystatin-1 in these diseases and developing potential therapeutic interventions. Order now to access a reliable and efficient solution for measuring cystatin-1 levels and advancing your research in the field of protease regulation and disease pathology.

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.
