Description

Type I Diabetes is an early onset autoimmune disease that destroys insulin producing pancreatic beta-cells. Type II Diabetes is later onset metabolic disorder caused by obesity, poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle.. With insufficient levels of insulin, or resistance to insulin, elevated glucose can lead to heart disease, stroke, kidney failure and dementia. MILLIPLEX(R) Human Diabetes Premixed Bead Panel is a 5-plex kit to be used for the simultaneous quantification of the following analytes in serum, plasma, or culture supernatant samples: C-Peptide, GLP-1 (Active), Glucagon, Insulin, Leptin. This kit uses a 96-well format, contains a lyophilized standard cocktail, two internal assay quality controls and can measure up to 38 samples in duplicate. The Luminex(R) xMAP(R) platform uses a magnetic bead immunoassay format for ideal speed and sensitivity to quantitate multiple analytes simultaneously, dramatically improving productivity while conserving valuable sample volume. Panel Type: Metabolism
