Anti-Insulin Antibody

Insulin, the peptide hormone central to glucose homeostasis, is the target of this rabbit polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com. Supplied as a 100 µl liquid aliquot at 1 mg/ml in phosphate buffered saline with 0.05% sodium azide (approximate pH 7.2), the unconjugated reagent is validated for Western Blot application across Human, Mouse, and Rat samples. Polyclonal clonality allows recognition of multiple epitopes on the insulin molecule, supporting detection of preproinsulin, proinsulin, and mature hormone forms in lysate preparations. Researchers pair this reagent with HRP- or fluorophore-conjugated secondary antibodies of their choice for chemiluminescent or fluorescent visualization on membrane or gel imaging systems. To preserve activity, aliquot upon first use, store refrigerated in working volumes, and limit freeze-thaw exposure. The antibody supports studies of pancreatic beta-cell biology, islet function, insulin secretion dynamics, and metabolic disease models including type 1 and type 2 diabetes research, as well as broader investigations of pancreatic islet development and beta-cell differentiation.
