Serum fructosamine does reflect levels of glycated serum albumin in insulin-dependent diabetics

Annals of Clinical Biochemistry

Abstract

Fructosamine was measured in the serum of 62 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes (IDD) and 32 non-diabetics and the results compared with glycated albumin levels (GSA) measured using the affinity medium Cibarcron blue F3GA. Good correlations were found both for the IDD patients (r = 0.93) and the combined group of IDD plus non-diabetics (r = 0.95). We conclude, that fructosamine measurements accurately reflect GSA concentrations, and, therefore, provide a practical method for assessing intermediate term glycaemia in IDD.
