Porcine Glucagon ELISA Kit

A Sandwich ELISA, Double Antibody assay from Assay Genie designed for the precise measurement of glucagon levels in porcine samples. The kit is validated for serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, and other liquid samples. Glucagon is described in the product documentation as a hormone involved in regulating blood sugar levels by promoting the breakdown of glycogen in the liver and stimulating the release of glucose into the bloodstream, with dysregulation implicated in diabetes and metabolic disorders.

Reported sensitivity is 37.5 pg/mL with a working range of 62.5-4000 pg/mL. Linearity across 1:2, 1:4, and 1:8 dilutions is provided for serum (86-103%, 94-101%, 88-97%), EDTA plasma (92-101%, 84-98%, 83-99%), and heparin plasma (85-102%, 83-100%, 89-98%). Recovery ranges are reported as serum 85-99% (average 92%), EDTA plasma 89-105% (average 97%), and heparin plasma 85-101% (average 92%). Kit components are stored at 2-8°C and the overall shelf life is stated as 12 months at that temperature. Related targets listed in the product documentation include GCG, GLP1, GLP2, GRPP, glicentin-related polypeptide, glucagon-like peptide 1, and glucagon-like peptide 2.
