Short Description
Colorimetric determination of total calcium.
Development Stage
Research-Grade Oxidative Stress Assay Development
Description
The GuardianOx™ Calcium Assay Kit provides a routine colorimetric method for electrolyte safety profiling, essential for monitoring bone metabolism and renal function. This assay validates the effect of drugs on calcium homeostasis, supporting research into osteoporosis and parathyroid disorders. It allows for the rapid assessment of potential calcification risks in pre-clinical toxicity studies.
