TGF alpha Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit

• Description:

  The TGF alpha Cell-Based ELISA Kit is a convenient, lysate-free, high throughput and sensitive assay kit that can monitor TGF alpha protein expression profile in cells. The kit can be used for measuring the relative amounts of TGF alpha in cultured cells as well as screening for the effects that various treatments, inhibitors (ie. siRNA or chemicals), or activators have on TGF alpha.
