Used in research settings to detect and quantify non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) in biological samples, this ELISA kit helps study iron metabolism disorders. It is particularly valuable in investigating conditions like hemochromatosis, thalassemia, and other diseases involving iron overload. By measuring NTBI levels, researchers can assess oxidative stress risks, evaluate chelation therapy effectiveness, and explore the role of labile iron in cellular damage. The kit supports studies in neuroscience, hepatology, and cardiology where iron dysregulation contributes to disease progression. It is for research use only and not intended for diagnostic procedures.
