Determination of glucose with glucoseoxidase-UV, using hexokinase as the reference method (author's transl)

Results obtained with the commercial test-set "GOD-UV" (Dr. Haury, München) are reported. This method permits the determination of serum-glucose within 3 minutes. The procedure is satisfactory in normal and hyperglycaemic patients. In the hypoglycaemic state, however, there is a danger of misinterpretation. The glucose oxidase-UV is compared with the hexokinase reaction.
