Description
The OXPHOSight™ Urea Assay Kit employs a urease-based reaction to determine blood urea nitrogen (BUN), the standard metric for renal clearance studies. This assay validates kidney function in toxicology models, helping to detect drug-induced nephropathy. It supports high-throughput screening of renal biomarkers, ensuring the safety of therapeutic candidates in pre-clinical development.
