The Rat B Cell Activating Factor (BAFF) ELISA Kit is a powerful tool for researchers studying the immune system in rats. This kit is specifically designed for the accurate detection of B Cell Activating Factor levels in rat serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. With high sensitivity and specificity, this ELISA kit provides reliable and reproducible results, making it ideal for a wide range of research applications.BAFF is a key cytokine that plays a crucial role in regulating B cell development, survival, and activation. Dysregulation of BAFF has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, highlighting its importance as a potential therapeutic target.
By accurately measuring BAFF levels in rat samples, researchers can gain valuable insights into the immune response and potential therapeutic strategies for autoimmune disorders. Overall, the Rat B Cell Activating Factor (BAFF) ELISA Kit is a valuable tool for researchers interested in the immune system and autoimmune diseases in rats, providing accurate and precise measurements to advance their scientific research.

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.
