Description
Glucagon is a 29 amino acid peptide hormone processed from proglucagon. As a counterregulatory hormone for insulin, glucagon plays a role in maintaining glucose homeostasis in vivo. Glucagon tends to form gel-like fibrillar aggregates, which exhibit toxicity.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
