Method and device for determining glucose concentration in lymph

摘要

Measuring values for glucose and an endogenous reference substance in a test liquid retained using microdialysis, microperfusion or ultrafiltration (probe 10) and correcting the glucose value according to the measured value for the reference substance, is new. It is suggested that the retrieval ratios for glucose are defined using a non-linear relationship to the retrieval ratios for the ionic reference substance and that the glucose value is corrected with this. Furthermore, the concentration of lactate and/or pyruvate should be pulled out as a further reference substance in the test liquid.
