Rapid and portable methods of lactose tolerance test administration

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1975
Abbreviated, portable methods of lactose tolerance test administration were investigated. Results obtained with the Ames Reflectance Meter/Dextrostix system for blood glucose determination during lactose tolerance testing were compared with those obtained from a standard method, the AutoAnalyzer. Subjects who had maximum blood glucose rises below 20 mg/

Evaluation of breath, plasma, and urinary markers of lactose malabsorption to diagnose lactase non-persistence following lactose or milk ingestion

BMC Gastroenterology, 2020
Background Adult lactase non-persistence (LNP) is due to low lactase expression, resulting in lactose malabsorption (LM). LNP is a genetic trait, but is typically determined by LM markers including breath H2, blood glucose, and urinary galactose after a ...
