A simple way to measure Elastin
Recently I reported about methods to measure:
- Collagen - Sircol for soluble and insoluble collagen assays
- Glycosaminoglycans - How to measure Glycosaminoglycans and Proteoglycans?
Today, I invite you to
Keep cool... corticosterone and stress
Corticosterone is a glucocorticoid secreted by the cortex of the adrenal gland in response to stimulation by adrenocorticotropic hormone. Corticosterone is a major indicator of stress in non-human mammals.
3 easy colorimetric assays to measure ECM components
Matrix components are key R&D elements in pharmaceutical and cosmetology with tremendous impacts on tissue regeneration, skin repair, wound healing, allergy
Soluble and Insoluble Collagen assays - made easy!
The monitoring of ECM components during experimental approaches requires robust and user-friendly in vitro assays. In the past experimental methods (e.g. soluble collagen measurement) were laborious
