Used in biomedical research to quantify levels of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in biological samples such as serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. It plays a key role in studying extracellular matrix remodeling processes linked to cancer progression, liver fibrosis, cardiovascular diseases, and inflammatory conditions. The kit enables researchers to assess TIMP-1 as a potential biomarker in disease diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic monitoring. Its high sensitivity and specificity make it suitable for clinical and preclinical investigations involving matrix metalloproteinase regulation.
