Target Introduction: OXCT1 in Metabolic Research
3-Oxoacid CoA-Transferase 1 (OXCT1), also known as Succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid coenzyme A transferase, is a critical mitochondrial enzyme essential for ketone body utilization. It catalyzes the first step in converting acetoacetate into acetoacetyl-CoA, making it a key player in energy metabolism, especially in the heart, brain, and kidneys during periods of fasting or high-fat diets. Accurate measurement of Rat OXCT1 activity is vital for studies in metabolic disorders, diabetes, cardiac energetics, and neurobiology.
Yanda Bio’s Rat OXCT1 ELISA Kit offers a precise and convenient tool for researchers in these fields. As a specialized manufacturer with expertise across 6,000+ detectable targets and trusted through long-term collaborations with over 60 universities, we provide reliable, cost-effective rat ELISA Kit solutions to support high-impact science.
Unmatched Value: Premium Quality Meets Efficient Production
Investing in reliable reagents shouldn’t strain your budget. The core of assay performance lies in antibody specificity and the stability of enzyme conjugates—components where premium brands traditionally invest.
Our Commitment to Quality: We source high-specificity antibodies and high-activity enzyme conjugates comparable to those used in leading international kits. Our optimized ELISA Kit production and direct-to-researcher model eliminate unnecessary markups, delivering this premium performance within an accessible, low-cost ELISA Kit framework. Achieve publication-ready data without the premium cost.
Two Optimized Formats: Precision for Every Protocol
We offer this assay in two specialized configurations to match your experimental priorities—whether maximizing budget efficiency or ensuring utmost sensitivity for critical samples.
Format A: High-Efficiency Standard Kit
Ideal for routine assessment of OXCT1 activity where sample volume is sufficient. This kit utilizes a streamlined one-step incubation process and a proprietary matrix-optimized diluent. The diluent effectively minimizes interference from hemoglobin, lipids, and other common sample components, ensuring stable baselines and robust, reproducible results (validated success rate >99%). It is our recommended solution for cost-effective routine analysis.
- Typical Pricing: Around $120 (retail). Under $100 per unit for wholesale or institutional purchases.
Format B: Advanced Sensitivity & Specificity Kit
Designed for challenging studies involving low-activity samples, precious biopsies, or complex matrices. This format utilizes a biotinylated recombinant monoclonal antibody (purity >95%) combined with a high-activity Streptavidin-HRP complex (≥500 U/mg). This system provides powerful signal amplification, effectively circumvents matrix effects, and is engineered for success in experiments where material is limited or failure is not an option.
Guidance for Selection:
- Choose Format A for reliable, budget-conscious measurement in standard metabolic phenotyping studies.
- Choose Format B for projects involving trace-level activity detection, irreplaceable samples, or when working with challenging sample types that require maximum assay robustness.
Assay Principle & Key Features
This kit is based on a sandwich ELISA principle designed to measure OXCT1 protein levels as a correlate of activity. The plate is pre-coated with a capture antibody specific to Rat OXCT1. After binding of the target in samples and standards, an HRP-conjugated detection antibody completes the “sandwich.” The enzymatic reaction with TMB substrate yields a colorimetric signal proportional to the amount of OXCT1 present.
Important Experimental Note: For optimal results, we recommend performing a pilot experiment to determine the optimal sample dilution. This step helps prevent a potential “hook effect” (prozone effect) in one-step sandwich ELISA designs, where extremely high analyte concentrations can lead to falsely low signals, thereby ensuring the accuracy of your final data.
