(Des-Thr5)-Glucagon is a polypeptide that can be found by peptide screening. Peptide screening is a research tool that pools active peptides primarily by immunoassay. Peptide screening can be used for protein interaction, functional analysis, epitope screening, especially in the field of agent research and development.

Sarmenoside II is a flavonol glycoside with activity that inhibits lipid accumulation. Sarmenoside II inhibits albumin-oleate-induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells by approximately 30% at 100 μM.
