What brands have reliable ELISA kits for IGF-1 and Apelin?

10 November 2022 0 4K Report

I planning to purchase ELISA kits to analyze human IGF-1 and apelin for pre and post-intervention.

What factors should I consider when deciding which kits to buy? A kit's range and sensitivity are two I know for sure.

I have never run experiments using ELISA before so I am unfamiliar with how one assesses ELISA kits for research purposes.

Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!
