Application

Dextrose has been used:
  • as a component in a basic medium to incubate goat mammary epithelial cells (GMEC) for glucose stimulation
  • in mice to perform glucose-stimulated insulin secretion test (IST) and to quantify serum insulin by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
  • to perform glucose tolerance test (GTT) in thermoneutral (TN) and heat-stressed (HS) dairy ewes to study its effects on the feed intake
