1.0 mL PRE spun AND separated serum AND 1.0 mL POST spun AND separated serum (label BOTH accordingly).
Test Description
Testing insulin in BOTH a fasted and a fed state when insulin dysregulation (ID) is either suspected or has been confirmed with baseline testing or Oral Sugar Test (OST). This allows for both baseline insulin testing and testing the current diet to determine if it is appropriate or dietary modification is needed.
Sample Handling:
• 3‑hour fast.
• Draw sample in non‑additive tube or serum separator tube and spin.
• Feed diet for testing purposes (indicate diet given on form).
• Draw sample at 60‑90 min post feed in non‑additive tube or serum separator tube and spin.
