Used in plant biology research to detect and quantify β-1,3-glucanase enzyme levels in plant tissues. This enzyme is involved in plant defense mechanisms against pathogens such as fungi and bacteria, as it breaks down β-1,3-glucans in the cell walls of invading microorganisms. The ELISA kit allows researchers to monitor enzyme activity and expression under stress conditions, during infection, or in response to signaling molecules like salicylic acid. It is also used in studies related to plant development, including pollen tube growth and seed germination, where β-1,3-glucanase plays a regulatory role. The kit supports high-throughput analysis in agricultural research and breeding programs aiming to enhance disease resistance in crops.
