Rat Glucagon Like Peptide 1 (GLP1) ELISA Kit

GLP-1 is an incretin hormone released by intestinal L-cells that enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and modulates satiety, making circulating levels a key biomarker in metabolic disease research. This rat-specific ELISA from Assay Genie enables quantification of endogenous Glucagon Like Peptide 1 in samples collected from rodent models of type 2 diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, supporting studies on incretin mimetics, bariatric interventions, and pancreatic beta-cell function. Each kit provides 96 assays in a colorimetric competitive binding format that runs on standard microplate readers, with reagents that include a precoated plate, lyophilized standards, assay buffer, wash concentrate, and detection antibody. Sample matrices validated for the assay include rat serum, rat plasma, and tissue homogenates, and the workflow fits longitudinal study designs tracking hormone dynamics in response to diet changes, drug treatment, or surgical intervention. The product is intended for research use only and ships with reagents sufficient for full standard curves run in duplicate.
