Cell Culture Supernates - Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBL) were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum, 50 μM beta -mercaptoethanol, 2 mM L-glutamine, 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin sulfate. Cells were cultured unstimulated or stimulated with 10 μg/mL PHA for 1 and 5 days. Aliquots of the cell culture supernates were removed and assayed for human/canine/porcine Insulin. No detectable levels were observed.


Product Summary

The Quantikine Human/Canine/Porcine Insulin Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure Insulin in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains S. cerevisiae-expressed recombinant human Insulin and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural Insulin showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring Insulin.

Precision

Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision. Assays were performed by at least three technicians using two lots of components

Background: Insulin

Insulin and the IGFs are members of the insulin family of molecules. IGF-I and II are structurally homologous to proinsulin, and can be thought of as taking the shape of an exaggerated, inverted letter G. Intrachain disulfide bonds link sections of the G. The single chain insulin propeptide consists of a 30 amino acid B chain (aa 2554), a C-peptide (aa 5589), and a 21 aa A chain (aa 90110). Removal of the C-peptide by proteolysis enables the formation of mature Insulin, a disulfidelinked heterodimer of the A and B chains. Circulating C-peptide levels are elevated in hyperinsulinism, obesity, and type II diabetes.

By Bradley Elliott on 04/12/2018
Sample Tested: Heparin Plasma

Ran here according to manufacturers instructions vs a Duoset Kit (#DY8056-05) before purchasing multiple kits for large study. Human heparinised plasma from an IVGTT, ran in both plates at the same time, by the same researcher on the same aliquots.

Broadly - Duoset signal was stronger throughout, and resultant IVGTT curve was smoother. Quantikine kit may be underexposed with 30 minutes substrate development in the Quantikine instructions? We've moved forward with the Duosets.
