Measurement of glucagon in human plasma by enzyme immunoassay.

In order to investigate the validity of an enzyme immunoassay for glucagon, the glucagon levels of human plasma were determined by both enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and radioimmunoassay (RIA). After a glucose load, plasma glucagon measured by both EIA and RIA fell in 12 normal subjects. The glucagon levels measured by both assays during glucose tolerance test showed good agreement in a group of 10 patients. After arginine infusion, plasma glucagon increased in 6 normal subjects and 3 patients and glucagon values measured by EIA correlated well with those by RIA. The present study demonstrates correlation between glucagon levels measured by RIA and EIA and indicates the usefulness of EIA for determining glucagon in human plasma.
