The following leptin ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of leptin in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the LEP gene. This protein has been described to function in adipose tissue development and angiogenesis. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 167 residues, a mass of 18.6 kDa, and is a member of the Leptin protein family. It has been described to be a secreted protein. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Leptin deficiency. This protein may also be known as OB, OBS, leptin (murine obesity homolog), leptin (obesity homolog, mouse), obese protein, and LEPD.
Some leptin ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.098 pg/mL and as high as 1500 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
