Revvity, 62GLPPEG, HTRF Active GLP1 Detection Kit, 500 Assay Points

Overview
Active GLP-1, also known as glucagon-like peptide-1 active forms (GLP-1(7-36)NH2, and GLP-1(7-37)), has become a key biomarker in treatment of type 2 diabetes. The main actions of GLP-1 are stimulation of insulin secretion, and inhibition of glucagon secretion and food intake. In vivo, the active forms are rapidly degraded into inactive forms (9-36)NH2 and (9-37) by the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV). The active GLP-1 kit is designed for a rapid detection of GLP-1 in cell supernatants.
HTRF assays offer many advantages over other technologies:

Homogeneous add-and-read format
No wash steps
Low background
Straightforward miniaturization from 96- or 384-well microplates to high density assay formats such as 384-well low volume and 1536-well plates
Stable signal, providing flexibility in time of readout or size of assays
How it works
Assay principle
Active GLP-1 is measured using a sandwich immunoassay involving two antibodies, one labelled with Lumi4Tb-Cryptate (Donor) and the second with d2 (Acceptor). The intensity of the signal is proportional to the concentration of GLP-1 active forms present in the sample.

Assay Protocol
The active GLP-1 test can be run on cell supernatants using a simple 'addition and read' procedure described on the right (no wash steps). The HTRF conjugates may be pre-mixed and added in a single dispensing step to further streamline the protocol. An assay can be run in 96- to 384-well plates by simply resizing each addition volume proportionally. The active GLP-1 assay protocol is described here, using a white 384-well small volume plate.
