Key information

About this study

There will be a total of 7 test session. Each session will last for 3 hours. At each test session, volunteers will be served with 7 test meals and blood will be collected. After an overnight fast, subjects will visit the research center. Two fasting capillary blood samples will be collected via fingerpick. Following the fasting samples, volunteers will consume the test meals. Further blood samples will be collected at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 minutes after the ingestion of test meal. These samples will be used to analyses for whole capillary blood glucose. At every 30 minute interval, samples will be collected for analysis of capillary plasma insulin.
