Specialized glucosensing neurons are present in the hypothalamus, some of which neighbor the median eminence, where the blood–brain barrier has been reported leaky. A leaky blood–brain barrier implies high tissue glucose levels and obviates a role for endo ...
The invention relates to a viscosimetric sensor for monitoring an analyte level in a patient or in body fluids ex vivo. In particular, the invention relates to a sensor for monitoring analytes, such as glucose levels in a patient. The sensor comprises at l ...
For more than thirty years there has been a high demand for glucose measuring devices to replace the finger pricking methods and to improve the life quality of diabetics. Three approaches are possible, electrochemical, electromagnetic (including optical), ...
The continuous delivery of glucose to the brain is critically important to the maintenance of normal metabolic function. However, elucidation of the hormonal regulation of in vivo cerebral glucose metabolism in humans has been limited by the lack of direct ...
Glucose is the major substrate that sustains normal brain function. When the brain glucose concentration approaches zero, glucose transport across the blood-brain barrier becomes rate limiting for metabolism during, for example, increased metabolic activit ...
The time between i.v. injection of a glucose bolus and the time the glucose concn. peaked in the s.c. tissue was measured in pentobarbital-anesthetized rats with implanted 290-mm-diam. amperometric sensors. Boluses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg body wt. were ...
A series of nanoporous membranes prepared from polyethylene-block-polystyrene were applied for size-selective diffusion of glucose and albumin molecules. Millimeter-sized test cells for characterization of such molecular diffusions were designed assuming a ...
[...] For many years, researchers in the biosensors field have been trying to develop a device allowing the precise measurement of the glucose level through the intact skin. In this project, an efficient device was constructed for the in-vitro impedance me ...
A prototype miniaturized Total Chemical Analysis System (μTAS) has been developed and applied to on-line monitoring of glucose and lactate in the core blood of anaesthetized dogs. The system consists of a highly efficient microdialysis sampling interface s ...
Performances of a glucose sensor have been investigated during dynamic variations of plasma glucose levels. Subcutaneos glucose concentrations measured by the sensors were calculated by a one-point calibration, performed in basal conditions. A first group ...
