when panreatic beta cells convert proinsulin into insulin they

produce a by product, this by product is the c-peptide. So this pby

product is secreted at the same rate as insulin. It can measure how

much insulin is being produced by the beta cells (islet cells) and can

aid in determining how well the endocrine part of the pancreas is

funtioning.

Hope this helps.
