Abstract:
The thiobarbituric acid (TBA) assay was used to determine non-enzymatic glycosylation of hair and fingernail keratin in non-diabetics and diabetics. Some measuring conditions including the amount of sample, the duration of hydrolysis, etc were described. The concentration of glycosylated hair protein (GHP) and glycosylated nail protein (GNP) in diabetics were both significantly higher than that in non-diabetics. GHP and GNP might be used as a monitor marker in retrospecfive assessment of chronic hyperglycemia.
