The Mouse FGF21 ELISA Kit is a powerful tool designed for the precise measurement of FGF21 levels in mouse serum, plasma, and tissue culture supernatants. This kit offers exceptional sensitivity and specificity, delivering dependable and consistent results for various research applications. FGF21, a member of the fibroblast growth factor family, plays a crucial role in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, as well as energy homeostasis. Its dysregulation has been associated with metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes, and fatty liver disease, making it a valuable biomarker for studying these conditions and exploring potential therapeutic interventions.
With easy-to-follow protocols and a user-friendly format, the Mouse FGF21 ELISA Kit is an indispensable tool for researchers interested in investigating the physiological and pathological roles of FGF21 in mouse models. Order yours today and unlock new insights into metabolic disorders and potential treatment strategies.

Note:The below protocol is a sample protocol. Protocols are specific to each batch/lot. For the correct instructions please follow the protocol included in your kit.
Step
Procedure
1
Reagent & Plate Preparation: Equilibrate reagents and TMB substrate to room temperature. Set standard, test sample and control (zero) wells on the pre-coated plate and record their positions.
2
Primary Incubation: Prepare standards, samples, blanks and load into designated wells. Incubate plate at 37°C for 90 minutes to allow antigen binding.
3
Detection Antibody Binding: Add biotin-labeled detection antibody and incubate at 37°C for 60 minutes.
4
HRP-Streptavidin Binding: Add HRP-Streptavidin (SABC) and incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes.
5
Color Development: Add TMB substrate and incubate in the dark for 10–20 minutes.
6
Stop Reaction & Reading: Add stop solution and measure absorbance at 450 nm immediately.
Sample Type
Protocol
Serum
Allow blood to clot, centrifuge at 1000 × g for 20 minutes, collect supernatant supernatant and store appropriately.
Plasma
Collect using anticoagulant tubes, centrifuge at 1000 × g for 15 minutes at 2–8°C and collect plasma.
Tissue Homogenate
Homogenize tissue in PBS with protease inhibitors, centrifuge and collect supernatant.
Cell Culture Supernatant
Centrifuge at 2500 rpm for 5 minutes and collect clarified supernatant.
Cell Lysate
Lyse cells using lysis buffer with protease inhibitors, centrifuge and collect protein supernatant.
