Possible errors in electrochemical detection of blood glucose

Abstract

The need of dosage of glucose concentration required to develop test methods that allow rapid and accessible even at home. It is necessary to follow a simple protocol that minimizes errors and interferences using some functions of these devices. We have identified possible errors in obtaining experimental data: lower sample volume, consume of different foods in the evening and the morning of blood collection, type of sample analysed (serum/plasma, venous/capillary blood). The data obtained using commercial biosensors were compared with spectrometric methods and good report was obtained.
