Physical form

Rabbit serum, diluted. Liquid in PBS containing 0.05% sodium azide.

Specificity

Glucagon-like peptide-1(7-36) amide (GLP-1), C-terminal reactive. Cross-reacts fully with GLP-1(1-36) amide but shows ﹤0.1% cross reactivity with the unamidated forms GLP-1(7-37) and GLP-1(1-37) or other related peptides such as hGLP-2, glucagon, hGIP and VIP.

SPECIES REACTIVITIES: Most mammalian species. GLP-1 is identical in all mammalian species studied except guinea pig and presumably its South American rodent relatives.

Storage and Stability

Maintain frozen at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
