Minimal Number of Kits Required:

C-peptide ELISA

(10-1136-01)

Kit format: 1 x 96 wells

Measurement range: 100 - 4000 pmol/L (0.302 - 12.1 µg/L)

No or minimal cross-reactivity to human insulin and proinsulin

High specificity enables measurement of human C-peptide in mouse and rat models

CE/IVD labeled on selected markets

Serum controls available: 10-1134-01 (US only) or 10-1164-01

Description

The C-peptide ELISA is a high quality immunoassay for specific quantification of human C-peptide in serum, plasma or urine

The Mercodia C-peptide ELISA is a highly specific tool registered for in vitro diagnostics (IVD) use. It is calibrated against the International Reference Reagent for human C-peptide, IRR84/510. The specificity of the utilized antibodies enables measurement of human C-peptide without interference from insulin or proinsulin, and measurement of human C-peptide in mouse and rat models.

 

Each Mercodia C-peptide ELISA kit contains reagents for 96 wells, sufficient for 42 samples and one calibrator curve in duplicate. The microplate strip format (12 strips x 8 wells) is ideal when only a limited number of samples need to be analyzed.

 

Mercodia Diabetes Antigen Control (10-1134-01 (US only) or 10-1164-01) is designed to be used as a two-level control for human C-peptide.
