THE INTRAVENOUS GLUCOSE TOLERANCE TEST IN THE PIG

Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test in Normal Persons

as a supplement to the oral method has been pointed out by many workers. Moreover, the possibility of error in the result of oral method due to diminished absorption has been shown by Beeler, Bryan, Cathcart and Fitz (1922). The flat blood sugar curve obtained by Thaysen (1929) after the oral administration of glucose, as has been shown by the author, is due to the diminished absorption of gluc...

Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test and Glucose Kinetic Parameters in Rabbits

The purpose of this study was to determine the normal range and test variability for intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) in rabbits. Fifty one clinically healthy New Zealand white rabbits of both sexes (31 female and 20 male), 3.5−4 months of age and weighing 2.8 to 3.7 kg were used. The IVGTT was performed after an overnight fasting period of 12 h by intravenous injection of 40% glucose...

The intravenous intralipid tolerance test.

The half-life of an intravenously injected bolus of intralipid 20% was measured in normal rats in order to asess its relationship to reticuloendothelial system (RES) activity. Groups of animals were studied following various treatments, and the results compared to measurement of carbon clearance in similar groups. The RES effects of silica and C parvum were confirmed by the carbon clearance tes...
