In Vitro Stabilization of Blood Glucose with Water

Samuel Meites 1 and Nancy Bohman 1

1 Clinical Laboratory, Children's Hospital, Columbus, Ohio.

The loss in glucose that shed blood undergoes on standing may be effectively inhibited for 2 hr., prior to protein precipitation, by a dilution with water of 1:80 (v/v). The inhibitory effect of water is independent of glucose concentration and temperature (up to and including room temperature). Incorporation of the dilution into the glucose oxidase method of Washko and Rice (4) makes the method particularly appropriate for the newborn.
