Glucose Measurements

SPECIMEN CONSIDERATIONS

Whole blood Plasma Serum Pleural fluid CSF Urine

Most measurements by enzymatic methods:

1. glucose dehydrogenase, 2. glucose oxidase, 3. hexokinase

Glucose Measurements

1. Glucose Dehydrogenase

2. Glucose Oxidase,

3. Hexokinase

(Henry JB. Clinical Diagnosis and Management by Laboratory Methods. 2011)

• These reactions produce an electrical current that is proportional to the initial glucose concentration, or a product that measured spectrophotometrically is proportional to the initial glucose concentration.

• The assays can be initial rate-of-change assays, where the velocity of the reaction is dependent on the initial glucose, or end-point assays.

A wide variety of devices are available forhome measurements:

• avoiding operator errors• Calibration• Errors that may contribute to inaccurate readings in certain

devices include the application of :- an insufficient volume of blood- milking the finger to acquire sufficient blood- the use of outdated test strip- environmental factors (humidity, heat, altitude)- the use of a malfunctioning meter- the use of a dirty meter - hypertriglyceridemia- hypotension- measurements outside of the hematocrit or temperature range

Influecing Factors

• Influenced by high levels of salicylate, acetaminophen, levodopa, uric acid, bilirubin,lipids, or low oxygen levels, and others are altered by touching the reaction area.

• Vit C, lactose, manose, galactose, xylose .

Glucose (negative)

Glucose is normally present in glomerular filtrate, but it is reabsorbed by the proximal tubule.

D-Glucose + O2 δ-D gluconolactone + H2O2

GOD

H2O2 + 0-tolidine H2O + colourPOD

Ketones (negative)

in healthy individuals, ketone bodies are formed in the liver and are completely metabolized so that only negligible amounts appear in the urine

sodium nitroprusside and glycerin + acetoacetate and acetone

alkaline medium violet dye complex.

URINALYSIS STEPS

PRE-ANALYTIC : patient preparation, samples collection, samples handling, labelling, refrigeration, preservatives of urine specimens.

ANALYTIC: principle of procedures, measurements, interpretation, conventional & rapid and sophisticated

POST-ANALYTIC: recording, reporting, use of units : conventional unit and international unit

QUALITY CONTROL (QC):calibration, control solution to get good and reliable results

Pre-Analytic1. Specimen collection- Requisition form must accompany with specimen

delivered to the lab; the form include : patient’s name, I.D number, date and time of collection and additional information : age, location, physician’s name, type of specimen/method, interfering medication and clinical information

- Container clean, dry, leak proof, disposable - All specimens must be properly labeled must be attach

to the container, not to the lid, should not become detached if the container is refrigerated

- The information on form requisition match with the inform on the label

Labelling urine specimen

Name (min 2 initial, ex: Deni Darmawaty)

Sex : female

Date (day, month, year)

Time collection:

Adress and telp number :

Pre-AnalyticTwo Type of Specimen Based on Time :

- Random specimen- First morning/fasting specimen- 2-hours post prandial specimen- Timed urine (12-hours, 24-hours specimen)

Based on method :- Midstream Clean-Catch specimen- Catheterized specimen- Suprapubic aspiration

Type of Urine Specimens Purpose

Random Routine screening

First morning Routine screeningPregnancy testsOrthostatic protein

Fasting (second morning) Diabetic screening/monitoring

2-h postprandial Diabetic monitoring

Glucose tolerance test Accompaniment to blood samples in glucose tolerance test

24-h (or timed) Quantitative chemical tests

Catheterized Bacterial culture

Midstream Clean-catch Routine screeningBacterial culture

Suprapubic aspiration Bladder urine for bacterial cultureCytology

• The first morning urine:

Collected upon rising, it represents the urine over

approximately an 8 hour period

• Ad random urine:

Collected any time

• The 2-hour postprandial urine:

Collected 2 hour following the meal ( for urine glucose)

• The 24-hour urine:

A pooling of all urine excreted by the patient over a 24 hour period

(for protein, uric acid, calsium quantitation, etc)

• Midstream urine:

The middle portion of a single urination

Pre-Analytic

3. Specimen HandlingFolowing collection should be delivered to the lab promptly and tested within 1-2 hoursIf it can’t delivered must be refrigerated or add with chemical preservative

LIMITATION OF THE METHOD AND INTERFERING FACTORS:

• Highly pigmented or large amounts of levodopa metabolites in urine may cause weak positive result

• High Specific Gravity and low pH urine and PSP (phenolsulfophthalein) may cause false positive result

• High-protein, carbohydrate-free, high-fat diets may result in ketonuria (false posi- tive)

• Medications : phenazopyridine , ascorbic acid, ether, insulin, isopropyl alcohol, metformin, isoniazide, isopropanol, paraldehyde, valproic acid, and bromsulfoph- thalein also can cause false positive results

EXPECTED VALUE

• In starvation diets or in other instances of abnormal carbohydrate metabolism, ketone appear in urine in excessively large amounts before serum ketone are elevated.

• This test detected 5 mg/dL of aceto-acetic acid; 70 mg/dL acetone; but more specific for aceto-acetic acid.
