Plasma 1,5 anhydroglucitol levels, a measure of short-term glycaemia: assay assessment and lower levels in diabetic vs. non-diabetic subjects.
An assay of plasma 1,5-anhydroglucitol was evaluated. Assay CVs, effects of four plasma freeze-thaw cycles, glucose up to 80 mmol/L and triglycerides up to 20 mmol/L were acceptable. 1,5-anhydroglucitol levels were significantly lower in diabetic vs. non-diabetic subjects and correlated inversely with renal function, but not with HbA1c.
