Uses
Insulin degludec is an ultra-long-acting form of insulin used for the research of hyperglycemia caused by type 1 and type 2 dabetes. Insulin degludec shows binding efficiency with an IC50 value of 19.59 nM for insulin receptor. Insulin degludec can be used for the research of type 1 and type 2 diabetes[1][2].
