Stability of proinsulin in whole blood [PDF]
Proinsulin, the precursor for insulin, is secreted in higher concentrations when β-cells are under stress and previous studies have shown that elevated proinsulin could be used as a marker for individuals in a pre-diabetic state. The aim of this study was to assess the stability of proinsulin across a wide concentration range (3-882 and 2-187pmol/L ...
