Rat GLP1 ELISA Kit

A competitive ELISA from Assay Genie designed for the quantitative measurement of GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide 1) levels in rat samples. The kit is intended for research use only and is validated for serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates and other biological fluids, with specificity for natural and recombinant rat Glucagon-like peptide 1.

The assay reports a detection range of 0.156-10ng/mL and a sensitivity of 0.068 ng/mL. GLP-1 is described as a key hormone involved in glucose metabolism and the regulation of insulin secretion, making it a valuable target in research into metabolic disorders such as diabetes and obesity.

The kit uses a colorimetric ELISA detection method read on a microplate reader with a 450 nm wavelength filter, and is accompanied by detailed sample-preparation guidance covering serum, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, cell culture supernatant, cell lysates, tissue homogenates, tissue lysates and breast milk.
