The action of glucagon is thus opposite to that of insulin, which instructs the body's cells to take in glucose from the blood in times of satiation. Glucagon is beneficial for the culture of some cell types. Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA)
Description
Glucagon Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 29 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 3483 Dalton. The Glucagon is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Glucagon is an important hormone involved in carbohydrate metabolism. The hormone is synthesized and secreted from alpha cells (a-cells) of the islets of Langerhans, which are located in the endocrine portion of the pancreas. Glucagon is released when the glucose level in the blood is low (hypoglycemia), causing the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose and release it into the bloodstream. Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA)
