Application Areas

Area Example Topics
Metabolic Studies
  • Brain metabolic connectivity and obesity
  • Changes in the blood of Type 2 Diabetes with metabolic syndrome
  • The impact of weight on metabolic health
Biochemical Research
  • Identifying biomarkers for diabetes
  • Researching methods of restoring liver function in diabetes
  • The impact of portal glucose sensing in hormone secretion
Studies in Diabetes Mellitus (DM)
  • Potential causes of type 1 diabetes
  • Testing a type 1 vaccine
Glucose Clamping
  • Studies using the euglycemic clamp to study insulin sensitivity and glucose turnover (uptake and production)
  • Studies utilising the hyperglycemic clamp to study insulin sensitivity and glucose turnover under hyperglycemia, or insulin secretion

Operation

After calibration with a standard of the selected metabolite, the single injection of sample is all that is needed to obtain a result and prepare the analyser for the next analysis. Sample injection via an accurate positive displacement pipette triggers the complete analytical cycle and a hard-copy result is printed within 25 seconds.

Principle

In the presence of molecular oxygen, ß-D-glucose is oxidised by the enzyme glucose oxidase (GOD) to gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide,

Operation

Under the condtions of the assay, the rate of oxygen consumption is directly proportional to glucose concentration.
