Development of Method of Fructose Identification in Urine to Detect the Viral Infection

The goal of this research is the attempt to implement a new research method based on modern electrochemistry successes, in particular the development of the polarographic method of fructose and fructose diphosphate identification and its implementation to detect the viral infection in early stage. There will be 20 samples from the HIV-infected patients and 30 samples from the heath controls. The study will collect 10ml urine and examined fructose and fructose-diphosphate using the polarographic method.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Fructose Identification in Urine to Detect the Viral Infection : Number of Participants With Positive and Negative Waveform

    Time frame: Participants provided urine samples once

    This detection technique, after a viral infection caused by the use of cell pathological changes and urine metabolic waste - fructose concentration, derivatives.Health News voltage changes to detect viral pathogens of activity and virulence. Because viral infection caused by the voltage change has its typical, So you can use voltage measurements to calibrate the presence and activity of a viral infection.

    1.How to interpretation the data The gap between values on X-axis is σ, and 50 is a reference to the center position. For example, the sample maybe contain with HIV virus if σ≧10 units.

    σ≧10 abnormal positive (+) σ<10 normal negative (-)
