Used in plant biology research to quantify sucrose synthase enzyme levels, particularly the decomposition SS-I isoform, involved in sucrose metabolism during growth and stress responses. Enables researchers to study carbohydrate partitioning, energy production, and sink-source dynamics in plant tissues. Commonly applied in studies of crop development, fruit ripening, and responses to environmental stresses such as drought or cold. The ELISA format allows for high-throughput, specific detection in tissue extracts, supporting breeding programs and genetic engineering aimed at improving yield and stress tolerance.
