Extra Details:: C-Peptide is part of the molecule of Proinsulin, that consists of three parts: C-Peptide and two long strands of amino acids (called the alpha and beta chains) that later become linked together to form the insulin molecule. From every molecule of proinsulin, one molecule of insulin plus one molecule of C-Peptide are produced C-peptide is released into the bloodstream in equal amounts to insulin. A test of C-peptide levels will show how much insulin the body is making. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry and RIA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Immunohistochemistry (paraffin sections): 2-5ug/ml using human pancreas (islets of Langerhans) as a positive control Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
