Methods Data were collected as" capillary blood glucose value of eight different sample points among sixteen observing days in thirty MNT alone type 2 diabetic patients. The correlation between HbAI c and capillary blood glucose value was evaluated by Pearson's correlation method. Results The r-values between HbA1c and capillary blood glucose of 3:00, 6:00, and bedtime (22:00-23:00) were 0. 81,0. 79, and 0. 78, respectively(P 〈0. 001 ). The best correlation was found between the mean value of 8- point blood glucose value throughout the day and HbA1c ( r=0. 84, P 〈0. 001 ). Conclustion Fasting blood glucose and postabsorptive blood glucose have better correlations with HbAlc compared with other points in this group of well-glycemic-controlled MNT alone type 2 diabetic patients.展开更多

As a result of its strong sedative and amnesiac effects, GHB has been implicated in a number of DFSA cases. The natural presence of GHB in the human body and its rapid elimination after ingestion make it difficult to detect and to evaluate its roles in suspected GHB-facilitated assaults. The paper describes an analytical method for the determination of GHB in urine using LC-MS/MS. Samples were acidified by ammonium chloride solution and extracted with ethyl acetate, and then the extracts were analysed by LC-MS/MS. The limit of detection was 0.05 p.g/mL (S/N = 3). The intra- and inter-day precision was within 10.0% at three concentrations. The methods were found to be sensitive, accurate, rapid and suitable for the forensic toxicology to test GHB in real cases.展开更多

The catalytic constant (kB) for aqueous arsenate is two-fold larger than for aqueous phosphate. The catalytic constant (ks) of phosphate in sorbitol mixtures increase from (1.67 ± 0.11) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 to (5.78 ± 0.39) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 and the catalytic constant is enhanced 3.5 times, relative to that in water; the catalytic constant (kB) of arsenate in sorbitol mixtures increase from (2.98±0.07)× 10-10 s-1·M-1 to (6.62 ± 0.53) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 and the catalytic constant is enhanced 2 times, relative to that in water. The spontaneous rate constants are independent of sorbitol concentration for phosphate and arsenate. The catalytic power of phosphate and arsenate in sorbitol are the same. Desolvation of strongly hydrated species such as HPO42 and HAsO42 should make a contribution to the energy cost of the formation of anion-hemoglobin complexes and can be a possible explanation for higher catalytic potential of HAsO42 in water. The same catalytic constant (ksB) for phosphate and arsenate in sorbitol indicates that the same catalyst base group on the hemoglobin molecule may be involved in the abstraction of proton in the Amadori rearrangement.展开更多
