Product Description

Product Description

Insulin is peptide hormone that is released from the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans of pancreas. 
It is synthesized as 86 amino-acid precursor “proinsulin” and it is cleaved by C-peptide and insulin that consists of 21 amino-acid A-chain and 30 amino-acid β chain that is linked by disulfide binding due to activation of prohormone conversion enzyme (PC2, PC3) in secretory granule.
Insulin deposits glucose and promotes synthesize protein in skeletal muscles. It also has physiological function such as suppress gluconeogenesis in liver and it has been known as an only hormone that can decrease blood glucose.    
Insulin is constantly released to maintaining the level of blood glucose while it is also released in large amount stimulated by incretin and glucose for suppressing rapidly increased blood glucose after meal.
However, lack of insulin secretion and decreasing insulin sensitivity are observed and eventually high blood glucose is observed in diabetic conditions.
Measuring insulin in fasting (F-IRI) is required for clinical assessment of diabetes such as function of insulin secretion and insulin resistance.
This ELISA kit can measure mouse and rat total insulin including proinsulin and low concentration of insulin in fasting using tiny amount of samples.

FAQ

FAQ

  • Question
    Q.Does this kit detect Insulin I or Insulin II?
  • Answer
    A.This kit can be used for quantitatively measuring total insulin including Insulin I, Insulin II and Proinsulin.
  • Question
    Q.Does hemolyzed sample affect to the assay result?
  • Answer
    A.Yes it does. We recommend to avoid to use hemolyzed samples for the assay as it might become value due to the effect of insulin-degrading enzymes leaked from blood cells.
  • Question
    Q.Is composition of EIA buffer of each ELISA kit all same? Can it be mixed to use?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.No it isn't. As constitute of each EIA buffer is different, it cannot be mixed with other lots or EIA buffers contained in other kind of ELISA kits.
  • Question
    Q.What is the composition of concentrated wash buffer?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.It contains ordinary Tween and phosphate buffer (0.05% Tween-20 in PB).
  • Question
    Q.What is the feature of the plate?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.We use plate that is flat bottom and removable strip type plate (8wellx 12 strips).
  • Question
    Q.Can I re-use standard after reconstitution?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.Not recommended to re-use standard after reconstitution. Please use it at once after the reconstitution.
    Please note that there are some exceptions. One time freeze-thaw the standard is acceptable for use after reconstitution for some ELISAs.
    Please check the details on each product datasheet.
  • Question
    Q.What is different between reagent blank and test sample blank?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.Reagent blank means a well is only added EIA buffer and the purpose is confirming whether the Test sample value is influenced by lack of washing process or other operations. Test sample blank means a well is added EIA buffer and HRP antibody and the purpose is to calculate the background.
  • Question
    Q.How many samples can be measured by this kit?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.The pre-coated plate contained in our ELISA kit is 96 wells plate. We recommend to use 16 wells (2 slits) for standard and 80 wells (10 slits) for 40 samples in duplicate.
  • Question
    Q.What is LOD (Limit of Detection)?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.It (LOD) is defined as sensitivity that is calculated using the NCCSL method. Please refer to a datasheet of each product.
  • Question
    Q.What is LOQ (Limit of Quantification)?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.It (LOQ) is the lowest value of measurement (standard) range. Please refer to a datasheet of each product.
  • Question
    Q.What is the definition of Over Night (O/N) reaction?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.It means that the reaction is required more than 16 hours unless otherwise specifically defined it on a datasheet of each ELISA product.
  • Question
    Q.What is the specification of quality control for ELISA product release?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.The information of specification is available on individual lot specific CoA. Please contact us with your reference lot number for obtaining of specific CoA.
  • Question
    Q.What is the number (e.g. 432143214321) at the edge of strips of the plate?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.According to the plate maker (ThermoFisher), it does not have any specific meaning as it is just the number of molds.
  • Question
    Q.How to wash an ELISA plate?
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.Washing it by an auto-washer is highly recommended.
    If it is not available, please refer to the demo video (only 2 mins) using a washing bottle.
  • Question
    Q.The wells turned black during the test with the kit.
    ELISA common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.It is possible that the wells were not washed sufficiently during the washing process after the HRP-labeled antibody reaction.
    Be sure to wash the wells enough times as described in the data sheet with washing buffer of more than 350 µL.
  • Question
    Q.How do you define the acceptance range of quality control of control sets?
    Control Set Common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.In principal, it is defined as ±15%-20% based the standard value described on each datasheet.
  • Question
    Q.What is the shelf life of control set?
    Control Set Common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.The shelf life is 12 months upon the goods is dispatched from our lab if the goods is unopned.
  • Question
    Q.What is the storage condition of control sets?
    Control Set Common FAQ

    A.It should be stored under chilled condition (2～10℃).
  • Question
    Q.Can the control set be used after reconstitution?
    Control Set Common FAQ
  • Answer
    A.No it cannot be re-used after the reconstitution.
  • Question
