Insulin ELISA(10-1113-01)

Kit format: 1 x 96 wells

Measurement range: 3 - 200 mU/L (0.13 - 8.70 µg/L)

• Calibrated against 1st International Reference Preparation 66/304 for human insulin
• No cross-reactivity to C-peptide or Proinsulin des(31-32) or split (32-33)
• Insignificant or no cross-reactivity to insulin analogs
• CE/IVD labeled on select markets

A high quality ELISA for specific measurement of human insulin in serum, plasma or cell culture media.
 

The Mercodia insulin assays have little or no cross-reactivity to insulin analogs or to rat or mouse insulin and comes with full cross-reactivity data.

The Mercodia Insulin ELISAs are the only ELISA assays to satisfy the total error requirements in the Insulin Standardization Program.
