Guinea pig anti insulin

Manufactured by Fortrea

Guinea pig anti-insulin is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and quantification of insulin in biological samples. It is a polyclonal antibody raised in guinea pigs against the insulin protein. This product can be used in various immunoassay techniques, such as ELISA, to measure insulin levels in research or clinical settings.

Hand-picked islets were washed once with PBS and then resuspended in RIPA lysis buffer containing protease inhibitors and phosphatase inhibitors cocktails (Sigma) as described32 (link). Islets were lysed by repeated pipetting or triturating through a 30G syringe needle. Lysates were resolved on a 4–12% NuPAGE Bis-Tris gel, and then electrotransferred to nitrocellulose membrane for western blotting. Antibodies used were mouse anti-proinsulin (ALPCO), guinea pig anti-insulin (Covance), and mouse anti-vinculin (Millipore). Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies were from Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, Inc., with protein visualized by ECL (Millipore).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
