Overview
Introducing our Glucagon (1-29) FAM-labeled peptide, a crucial tool for researchers working in the fields of endocrinology and diabetes research. Glucagon is a peptide hormone produced by the alpha-cells in the pancreatic Islet of Langerhans, and it plays a vital role in glucose metabolism by signaling the liver to release stored glucose during low blood sugar levels. Our FAM-labeled variant allows for precise detection and monitoring in various assays, making it an essential component for your laboratory needs.
