Anthropometric and Metabolic Biomarkers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Body weight was measured with a Tanita Scale (Body Composition Analyzer; Type BC- 418 MA; Tanita Corporation, Tokyo, Japan), and subjects were interviewed to acquire height. Blood serum was stored immediately at −80 °C. After determination of fasting insulin by an electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA; Elecsys system; Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and of fasting glucose by an glucose-hexokinase UV test (Hitachi Modular; Roche), the Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) index was calculated as glucose (mg/dl) × insulin (μU/ml) / 405.

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.
