6 protocols using accu chek blood glucose monitor

1

Diabetes Monitoring in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were monitored for diabetes at least weekly using urine glucose strips (Roche Urinalysis ChemStrips) or a Roche Accuchek blood glucose monitor. Mice were considered diabetic after two consecutive blood glucose measurements of >250 mg dl−1.

Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes in B6 Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Seven days before transplantation, a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin at a dose of 150 mg/kg body weight was administered to B6 mice to induce diabetes mellitus. Subsequently, blood samples were collected via the tail vein, and blood glucose levels were measured using an Accu-Chek blood glucose monitor (Roche Diagnostics K.K., Tokyo, Japan). Mice with two consecutive measured blood glucose concentrations of 450 mg/dL were used as recipients.

Induction of Diabetes Model with STZ

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Diabetes was induced by a single intravenous injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 150 mg/kg; Wako, Japan) 4–6 d before transplantation. Blood samples were collected via the tail vein and blood glucose levels were measured using an Accu-Chek blood glucose monitor (Roche Diagnostics K.K., Tokyo, Japan). Nonfasting blood glucose levels of ≥400 mg/dL on 2 consecutive measurements indicated diabetes.

Electrochemical Blood Glucose Measurement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood was collected in 1.5 mL Eppendorf tubes and stored at 4 °C until analysis. The Accu-Chek® blood glucose monitor (Roche, Indianapolis, IN, USA) was used to determine blood glucose levels. Exactly 0.6 µL of blood was placed on the disposable electrochemical test stripe. The digitally displayed reading corresponding to each sample was recorded.

Oral Glucose and Insulin Tolerance Tests

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the OGTT, animals were administered 40% D-glucose (2.0 g/kg BW; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) via oral gavage after 12-h fasting. For the ITT, rats were intraperitoneally injected with insulin (0.75 IU/kg BW; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) after 12-h fasting. Blood samples were obtained from tail veins at 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120 min after the OGTT or ITT, and glucose concentrations in the blood were determined with Accu-Chek blood glucose monitor (Roche, Grenzach-Wyhlen, Germany).

Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rat Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The diabetic rats models were established by single intraperitoneal injection of 45 mg/kg of streptozotocin (STZ) dissolved in freshly prepared citric acid-sodium citrate buffer (pH 4.2/4.5). Three days later, glycemia levels were measured in 18 h fasting rats by measuring blood glucose concentrations in blood samples obtained from the tails using a blood glucose meter (Accu-Chek blood glucose monitor, Roche, IN, USA). Rats having a glucose levels higher than 250 mg/dL were used as diabetics in the experiments.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
