1,5 ANHYDROGLUCITOL
What does 1,5 ANHYDROGLUCITOL measure?
This test measures 1,5-anhydroglucitol, a substance in the blood that can reflect recent episodes of elevated glucose levels, particularly after meals. It may be used alongside other diabetes-related tests to help assess short-term glucose control or detect glucose fluctuations over the previous one to two weeks. Results are interpreted with other clinical information, as kidney function and certain treatments may affect levels.
