Description:
This book is a ‘how to' manual to established and new state-of-the art-techniques that facilitate monitoring of metabolism and even diagnosis of certain defects in human metabolism. One section deals with all metabolic tests that measure insulin action and compare their efficacy. Another section goes into more detail, describing methods, which allow quantification of whole body and intracellular metabolic events relevant to diabetes research. The final section focuses on the planning and pitfalls of clinical studies in the field of metabolism. Each chapter combines the theoretical basis of the approach with practical recommendations.
