fasting blood sugar and random blood sugar the are both determine by use of glucometer
well it would depend on how many grams of blood you're measuring wouldn't it
Urine glucose can be tested using a urine dipstick test. This involves dipping a test strip into a urine sample and checking the color change that indicates the presence of glucose. However, it is important to note that a urine dipstick test is not as accurate as blood tests for measuring glucose levels.
Drabkin's method is a commonly used laboratory technique to estimate hemoglobin levels in the blood. It involves lysing the red blood cells to release hemoglobin and then measuring the absorbance of the hemoglobin-cyanmethemoglobin complex at a specific wavelength to determine the concentration of hemoglobin in the sample. This method provides a quick and accurate assessment of hemoglobin levels, which is crucial for diagnosing conditions like anemia.
The diagnostic test used to determine the amount of glucose in the blood is called a blood glucose test. This test measures the concentration of glucose in a blood sample obtained through a finger prick or from a vein in the arm. It is commonly used to diagnose and monitor conditions such as diabetes and hypoglycemia.
One synonym for glucose is blood sugar.
a glucose meter
That is the correct spelling of "glucometer" (blood glucose measuring device)
Simply put, the enzymatic method ( eg. glucose oxidase and hexokinase etc.) is the best method for blood glucose concentration because of its specificity. This yeilds maximum specificity for glucose estimation even in a comlpex mixture. Sherry-Ann Ramnarine-Phillips
No, human glucose meters are not accurate for measuring blood sugar levels in dogs. It is recommended to use a specific glucose meter designed for dogs to monitor their blood sugar levels accurately.
Yes it will affect the reading you get (not your actual blood glucose). If you have food (especially sugary food) on your finger where you take the drop of blood from, then the sugar from the food will mix with the blood and give a false reading. This is why it is important to wash the finger before testing blood glucose.
The Omron Hem 650 is used for measuring one's blood pressure from the wrist as opposed to the normal method of measuring on the upper arm with standard blood pressure cuffs.
The instrument used to measure blood sugar is usually reffered to as a blood glucose meter, or a BSGM (Blood Sugar Glucose Meter).

It is the glucose level (the amount of it) in your blood. Added 2/17/11: Glucose, which can also be listed as GLU on a lab report, is a chemical name for SUGAR. The normal level of glucose / sugar in your blood should stay between 70 - 110. Blood glucose levels that stay elevated above 125 over a period of time could mean that you have a disease called diabetes.
GLRAND is not a commonly recognized term in relation to blood tests. It is possible that you meant "GLU" or "GLUCOSE," which refers to a blood test measuring glucose levels to assess diabetes or metabolic conditions. If GLRAND refers to a specific test, please provide more context for accurate information.
Correct, glucose is a blood sugar.
When blood glucose levels rise, the pancreas secretes insulin, which helps cells take up glucose from the blood, lowering blood glucose levels. When blood glucose levels are low, the pancreas secretes glucagon, which stimulates the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream, raising blood glucose levels back to normal.
