Type
Sandwich ELISA, HRP-labelled antibody
Description
This ELISA kit is used for quantitative determination of glucagon in plasma, serum and culture medium supernatant. The kit is characterized by its sensitive quantification and high specificity. In addition, it has no influence by other components in samples. Glucagon standard is highly purified synthetic product.

Summary
Glucagon is a 29-amino acid polypeptide hormone, synthesized and secreted from alpha cells of the
islets of Langerhans. Glucagon generally elevates the concentration of glucose in the blood by
promoting gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis, and it has the opposite effect of insulin. The secretion of glucagon and insulin into the blood in response to the blood glucose concentration is the primary
mechanism responsible for keeping the glucose levels.
This Glucagon sandwich ELISA kit has been developed by using two monoclonal antibodies specific for
glucagon. This kit has high specificity to glucagon and shows no significant cross reactivity with
Glicentin, Oxyntomodulin, GLP-1 and GLP-2.
