IGF1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein insulin like growth factor 1, which is encoded by the IGF1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in cell proliferation. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 195 residues, a mass of 21.8 kDa, and is a member of the Insulin protein family. It is known to be secreted. As many as 4 protein isoforms have been reported. The IGF1 gene has been associated with the disease, Insulin-like growth factor I deficiency. Other alias names for this target include IGF-I, IGFI, MGF, insulin-like growth factor I, insulin-like growth factor 1 (somatomedin C), and IGF.
The detection range for different IGF1 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 0.21 pg/mL and as high as 4500 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
