GIP, also known as gastric inhibitory polypeptide, or glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, is a 42 amino acid peptide hormone synthesized in and secreted from K cells in the intestinal epithelium.

Insulin, a 5.8 kDa hormone, is secreted by the islet beta cells in the pancreas.

The OxyELISA™ Oxidized Protein Quantitation Kit provides a sensitive methodology for detection and quantitation of proteins modified by oxygen free radicals and other reactive species. Oxygen-derived free radicals have been implicated in numerous physiological functions such as apoptosis, cancer, aging, neurodegenerative diseases, chronic inflammatory diseases, pulmonary diseases, and cardiovascular diseases (for reviews, see…

TMB, (3,3',5,5'-tetramethybenzidine) has been shown to be a safe-sensitive substrate for the assay of HRP. Initially, in the presence of HRP and hydrogen peroxide, a one-electron oxidation product is formed. This compound, a cation free radical, is blue in color with an adsorption maximum of 653 nm. Further reaction with HRP/H2O2 or acidification of the radical with acid yields the diimine terminal oxidation product adsorbing…

Antipain is a serine and cysteine reversible protease inhibitor. It inhibits papain and trypsin. Plasmin is inhibited to a small extent as well. More specific than leupeptin for papain and trypsin. Source: Microbial origin. Not synthetically made.

Montage Antibody Purification Kits are designed for fast and easy antibody purification from serum, ascites or cell culture supernatants. The kits include spin columns pre-packed with high capacity PROSEP-A or G media. There are no pumps to setup. No columns to pack. All you need is a centrifuge to purify 10–20 mg in less than 60 minutes.The protocol is easy to follow and, unlike traditional gravity flow methods, the use of ce…
