    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Clinical Diagnostics

    Background:

    • Accurate glucose measurement is crucial for diagnosing and managing diabetes.
    • Existing methods for serum glucose determination have limitations in sensitivity or reproducibility.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate a new, sensitive colorimetric method for serum glucose determination.
    • To compare the performance of the new method against a standard assay.

    Main Methods:

    • A colorimetric assay utilizing a glucose oxidase-peroxidase system with 4-aminoantipyrine-dimethylaniline.
    • Optimization of reaction conditions, including pH (optimum at 5.6).
    • Assessing color stability and reproducibility.

    Main Results:

    • The developed colorimetric method demonstrated high sensitivity, exceeding that of the o-dianisidine method.
    • The assay exhibited excellent reproducibility.
    • A strong correlation (0.989) was observed between the proposed method and the o-dianisidine method.

    Conclusions:

    • The 4-aminoantipyrine-dimethylaniline method provides a sensitive, reproducible, and reliable approach for serum glucose quantification.
    • This new method offers a viable alternative for clinical glucose monitoring.
