Human Glucagon Like Peptide 1 (GLP1) ELISA Kit

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a 30-amino-acid incretin hormone produced by post-translational cleavage of proglucagon in intestinal L-cells. It is released within minutes of nutrient ingestion and acts through the GLP-1 receptor to amplify glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, suppress glucagon output, slow gastric emptying, and reduce appetite. Because of these pleiotropic effects, GLP-1 is central to research on type 2 diabetes, obesity, bariatric surgery, and the pharmacology of GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide, liraglutide, and exenatide.

This Assay Genie competitive ELISA kit is configured for quantitative measurement of GLP-1 in human-derived liquid biospecimens, including processed serum fractions, plasma fractions, and other relevant human matrices. The kit is supplied as a 96-assay format containing all reagents, plates, and buffers required to generate a standard curve and quantify unknowns. Reconstituted standards and quality controls should be kept refrigerated between runs and protected from light, while the microplate strip wells are intended for single-use loading.

Colorimetric readout is performed on a standard microplate reader, allowing straightforward integration into existing laboratory workflows. The kit is for research use only, supporting studies of incretin biology, postprandial hormone dynamics, beta-cell responsiveness, and pharmacodynamic monitoring of incretin-based therapeutics.
