Used in biomedical research to detect and quantify caspase-1 levels in rat samples, particularly in studies related to inflammation and apoptosis. Enables researchers to assess activation of the inflammasome pathway, which plays a key role in immune responses and various diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders, sepsis, and autoimmune conditions. Commonly applied in preclinical studies using rat models to evaluate therapeutic interventions targeting inflammatory pathways. Provides a reliable and sensitive method for measuring caspase-1 in cell lysates, tissue homogenates, and biological fluids.
