Estimate

Other first phase insulin secretion (FPIR), Hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (HEC), glucose tracer, and palmitate tracer

FPIR: intravenous infusion of 20 % glucose 0.3 mg/kg in 2 minutes followed by blood sampling at times 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10. Duration 10 minutes. HEC: intravenous infusion of actrapid 1mU/kg/minute, simultaneous infusion of 20 % glucose at variable rate to reach plasma blood glucose level of 5 mmol/L. Duration 120 minutes Glucose tracer: bolus of 3H3glucose (12µCi) followed by infusion of 3H3glucose (0,12 µCi/min). Duration 120 minutes. Palmitate tracer:[9,10-3H]-palmitate 0,3 µCi/min. Duration 60 minutes.
