Disruptions to biochemical reactions essential for cellular processes can be exceptionally harmful to an organism. Abnormal metabolism is linked to disorders like diabetes, stroke, obesity, and cancer. Understanding how specific pathways influence biological outcomes is a common metabolic studies’ goal.
Arbor Assays provides tools for measuring important metabolic pathway biomarkers. Our triiodothyronine and thyroxine assays provide essential data on thyroid activity, while insulin and glucose assays can be used to assess islet function.
The DetectX® Glutathione (GSH) Detection Assay Kits allow for convenient, rapid, and easy quantitation of both GSH and GSSG for an accurate measurement of a cell’s oxidative status in a variety of sample types.
The DetectX® Retinol Binding Protein (RBP) Multi-Format ELISA Kits measure both high and low RBP levels in a variety of samples including dried blood spots, serum, EDTA and heparin plasma, and urine
The DetectX® Low Volume Serum Creatinine kit quantitatively measures creatinine present in serum samples using a 384-well plate format to minimize sample usage.
Quantitatively measures T3 present in urine, extracted serum, plasma, fecal extracts, and tissue culture media samples. It measures total T3 in extracted serum, plasma and fecal extracts.
The DetectX® Urinary Creatinine Detection kits are designed to quantitatively measure creatinine in urine samples. A NIST calibrated creatinine standard is used to standardize the assay.
