1st Stage
InstrumentaNon:
-Photometer adjusted on wavelength 500 nm
-CuveCe (light path) 1 cm
-Water bath at 37 ºC
-AutomaNc pipeCes, disposable test tubes , racks and disposable Nps for
the dispensers.
PROCEDURE
1. Assay condi,ons:
Wavelength: . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . 500 nm
Cuve;e: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. 1 cm light path
Temperature. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 37 C ͦ / 15-25 C
2. Adjust the instrument to zero with dis,lled water.
3. Pipe;e into a cuve;e:
Blank Standard Sample
1.0 ml 1.0 ml 1.0 ml WR (mL)
-- 10 µL -- Standard (µL)
-- -- 10 µL Sample (µL)
10 µL -- -- DW
4. Mix and incubate for 10 min at 37 C o ͦ r 20 min at room
temperature (15-25 C )ͦ .
5. Read the absorbance (A) of the samples and standard, against the
Blank.
The color is stable for at least 30 minutes.
CALCULATIONS
(A) Sample x 100 (Standard conc.) = mg/dL glucose in the sample
(A) Standard
Normal Range:
Blood glucose…
Fas.ng= 70 - 110 mg/dl
2 hrs. Postprandial = 110 - 140 mg/dl
II - Hyperglycemia :
1. Diabetes Mellitus
2. Haemochromatosis: excess iron in the body and the accumulation of iron in
the pancreas cause damage to the cells that produce insulin.
6. Hyperthyroidism
Thyroid hormones affect glucose metabolism via several
mechanisms.
7. Cushing disease:
increase cor7sone level so increase glucose level
