Innovative and functional assay to quantify proAKAP4 in mouse and rat sperm (all rodents).
The Mouse 4MID® Kit (Ref. 4BDX-18K8) contains all reagents and buffers required for the quantification of proAKAP4 protein in the sperm of main rodents.
This ELISA Kit is the 1st functional test to evaluate sperm quality in rodents.
The concentration of the proAKAP4 biomarker is a good indicator of sperm quality and of how the spermatozoa can keep its motility high and efficient overtimes (Sergeant et al. 2019 ; Delehedde et al. 2029).
High concentrations of proAKAP4 help select semen with long lasting motility and are indicative of good spermatogenesis, giving more mature, more “normal’ spermatozoa and less tail abnormalities ratio in semen samples (Sergeant et al. 2019 ; Bastan and Akcay, 2021).
