Diabetes mellitus is a globally growing disease with more than 180 million cases worldwide and no cure exists. In order to minimize the many medical complications, tight glucose monitoring has been shown to be the best alternative. Many diabetics require i ...
We present a viscometric affinity biosensor for continuous monitoring of glucose in biological fluids such as blood and plasma. The sensing principle of this chemico-mechanical sensor is based upon the viscosity variation of a sensitive fluid with glucose ...
Type 1 diabetes can affect hippocampal function triggering cognitive impairment through unknown mechanisms. Caffeine consumption prevents hippocampal degeneration and memory dysfunction upon different insults and is also known to affect peripheral glucose ...
[...] 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 ...
Hyperglycemia and diabetes alter the function and metabolism of many tissues. The effect on the brain remains poorly defined, but some animal data suggest that chronic hyperglycemia reduces rates of brain glucose transport and/or metabolism. To address thi ...
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), ...
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 ...
Glut-2 is a low-affinity transporter present in the plasma membrane of pancreatic beta-cells, hepatocytes and intestine and kidney absorptive epithelial cells of mice. In beta-cells, Glut-2 has been proposed to be active in the control of glucose-stimulate ...
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 ...
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 ...
