General description

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions, including increased blood pressure, elevated insulin levels, abnormal cholesterol levels and excess body fat around the waist. Key features of metabolic syndrome include insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and central obesity. MILLIPLEX^® Rat Metabolic Panel is a 13-plex kit to be used for the simultaneous quantification of any or all of the following analytes in tissue/cell lysate and culture supernatant samples and serum or plasma samples: Amylin (active), C-peptide 2, Active Ghrelin, GIP, GLP-1, Glucagon, IL-6, Insulin, Leptin, MCP-1, PP, PYY, and TNFα. 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^® xMAP^® 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.
