Porcine Glucagon Like Peptide 1 (GLP1) ELISA Kit

The Porcine Glucagon Like Peptide 1 (GLP1) ELISA Kit from Assay Genie is a competitive immunoassay for quantitative measurement of GLP-1 in porcine samples. GLP-1 is a 30-amino acid incretin hormone secreted by intestinal L-cells in response to nutrient ingestion, and it plays a central role in glucose-dependent insulin secretion, gastric motility, and satiety signaling. Because porcine GLP-1 shares high sequence homology with the human peptide, swine serve as a key translational model for studying type 2 diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists.

The protocol requires a 50 µl sample volume and is validated for serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates, and cell culture supernatants. Researchers apply this kit to evaluate postprandial GLP-1 secretion, incretin responses to dietary interventions, and enteroendocrine activity in swine models of metabolic disease.

Each kit contains a pre-coated 96-well microplate, lyophilized standards, detection antibody, wash buffer, substrate and stop solutions, and a complete assay protocol. Reagents should be stored refrigerated at 2-8°C, and the kit is intended for research use only.
