Human Glucagon,GC ELISA Kit

Product Details

Description
The product CSB-E09207h is a ready-to-use solid-phase ELISA kit for the quantitative determination of Glucagon (GC) levels in human biological fluids, including serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates. Glucagon is a 29 amino acid peptide manufactured by the alpha cells in the pancreatic islets. Glucagon and insulin work synergistically to maintain blood glucose homeostasis. It mainly functions to increase blood glucose through glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Classically hypoglycemia stimulates glucagon release which in turn promotes hepatic gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis to normalize plasma glucose levels. Excessive glucagon may lead to glucagonoma syndrome, containing weight loss, necrolytic migratory erythema (NME), diabetes, and mucosal abnormalities including stomatitis, cheilitis, and glossitis. Glucagon also affects lipid metabolism, breaking down fat through lipolysis and increasing ketone production. In the protein metabolism, glucagon increases ureagenesis and causes ami...Read more

Precision
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): CV%   
Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess.  
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): CV%   
Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty assays to assess.    
             
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples were spiked with high concentrations of human GC in various matrices and diluted with the Sample Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Materials provided
  • A micro ELISA plate --- The 96-well plate has been pre-coated with an anti-glucagon antibody.
  • Six vials standard (5ml/bottle)--- Dilute a bottle of the standard at dilution series, read the OD values, and then draw a standard curve.
  • One vial HRP-conjugated glucagon antibody (6 ml/bottle) --- Bind to the glucagon in the samples or standards and react with the substrate to make the solution chromogenic.
  • One vial Wash Buffer (20x concentrate) (15 ml/bottle) --- Wash away unbound or free substances.
  • One vial Substrate A (7ml/bottle) --- Mix with substrate B and then interact with TMB to elicit a chromogenic reaction.
  • One vial Substrate B (7ml/bottle) --- Mix with substrate A and interact with TMB to elicit a chromogenic reaction.
  • One vial Stop Solution (7ml/bottle) --- Stop the color reaction. The solution color immediately turns from blue to yellow.
  • Four Adhesive Strips (For 96 wells) --- Cover the microplate when incubation.
