The Mouse GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric acid) ELISA Kit is a cutting-edge tool for the precise measurement of GABA levels in mouse serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit boasts exceptional sensitivity and specificity, guaranteeing consistent and trustworthy results, thereby making it an invaluable asset for a wide array of research endeavors. GABA is a vital neurotransmitter that plays a pivotal role in inhibitory signaling within the central nervous system. Dysregulation of GABA has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including epilepsy, anxiety, and depression.
As such, accurate measurement of GABA levels is essential for understanding the underlying mechanisms of these conditions and exploring potential therapeutic interventions. The Mouse GABA ELISA Kit offers researchers a reliable and efficient means of quantifying GABA levels, enabling a deeper insight into its physiological and pathological roles. With its high-quality components and user-friendly protocol, this kit is a must-have for any laboratory seeking to advance their understanding of GABA biology.

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 TMB substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature. Prepare standards, samples (minimum 1:2 dilution), blanks, assign wells, and pre-wash the plate twice.
2
Sample & Biotin-Antibody Binding: Add 50 µL standard or sample followed by 50 µL biotin-labeled antibody to each well. Mix gently and incubate at 37°C for 45 minutes.
3
Washing: Wash the plate 5 times with wash buffer, allowing 1 minute soak time per wash.
4
Color Development: Add TMB substrate and incubate in the dark at 37°C for 10-20 minutes until color develops.
5
Stop Reaction: Add stop solution to terminate the reaction. The color changes from blue to yellow immediately.
6
Reading: Measure absorbance at 450 nm using a microplate reader.
Sample Type
Protocol
Serum
Allow blood to clot, centrifuge at 1000 × g for 20 minutes, collect supernatant and store appropriately.
Plasma
Collect using EDTA anticoagulant, centrifuge at 1000 × g for 15 minutes at 2–8°C and collect plasma.
Cell Culture Supernatant
Centrifuge at 1000 × g for 20 minutes at 4°C and collect clarified supernatant.
Cell Lysate
Lyse cells using recommended lysis buffer with protease inhibitors, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 10 minutes, and collect protein supernatant.
Tissue Homogenate
Homogenize tissue in PBS with protease inhibitors, centrifuge at 5000 × g for 5 minutes, and collect supernatant.
Other Sample Types
Centrifuge samples at 1000 × g for 15 minutes at 2–8°C and collect supernatant. For additional guidance, please contact techsupport@assaygenie.com.
