Diabetes mellitus, history in a nutshell • 1552 BC, Egypt – polyuria, earliest known record of diabetes by physician Hesy-Ra • 1st Century AD, Arateus defined diabetes as ’the softening of limbs and flesh into urine.’ • 11th Century, diabetes was diagnosed by ’water tasters’ and people’s urine suffering from diabetes was tested to be sweet tasting. • 16th Century, diabetes was identified as a severe common disorders. • 16th Century, UK – ’saccarine materials’ detected in urine • 19th Century, Germany - pancreas contains two systems of cells, one secreting pancreatic juice, the other, later named ’islets of Langerhans’ was unknown • 1889, France – tests when pancreas is removed • 1921, discovery and extraction of insulin (Dr. Banting et al, Toronto) • 1922, first patient treated by injection of insulin • 1944, the standard insulin syringe introduced • 1959, type 1 and 2 diabetes identified • 1982, the first biosynthetic human insulin developed
Diabetes, classification • Type 1 diabetes mellitus • Characterized by loss of the insulin-producing beta cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas, leading to a deficiency of insulin. • It is about 10% of diabetes mellitus cases in North America and Europe (though this varies by geographical location), and is a higher percentage in some other areas. • Type 2 diabetes mellitus • Type 2 diabetes mellitus is characterized differently due to insulin resistance or reduced insulin sensitivity, combined with reduced insulin secretion. • Additionally classified • Gestational Diabetes • Other types, genetic mutations, non-responding insulin receptors etc.
Konelab system tests for diabetes monitoring For short term monitoring • Glucose For long term monitoring • HbA1c • Microalbuminuria
History of HbA1c • 1958 Hemoglobin A1c, separated from other forms of Hb by Huisman et al using chromatograph • 1968 characterized as a glycoprotein by Bookchin et al. • 1969 relationship to diabetes by Rahbar et al • 1976 the use for monitoring the diabetes status by Koenig et al
Facts about HbA1c • Glycosylated or glycated hemoglobin, a form of hemoglobin located in the erythrocytes. • The average life span of the erythrocytes is 100 – 120 days => HbA1c reflects the average blood glucose level during 2 – 3 months. • HbA1c is suitable for monitoring long-term blood glucose with diabetes.
Methods for HbA1c measurement • Based on charge differences • Ion-Exchange Chromatography • HPLC • Electrophoresis • Isoelectric Focusing • Structural differences • Affinity Chromatography • Immunoassay <= Konelab • Chemical analysis • Colorimetry • Spectrophotometry
Immunological HbA1c assay in details • Typically the epitope of the antibody is located in first aminoacids of the HbA1c • Improved specificity • Less non-specific reactions between different Hb variants
Immunological HbA1c assay in details Reaction: Solid complex Excess of antibody Sample Unsoluble complex Polyhapten
HbA1c test on Konelab Immunological method • Total Hb and HbA1c measured from hemolyzed sample (EDTA, capillary or heparinized blood) • Automatic calculation for HbA1c%, according to the IFCC or DCCT/NGSP recommendation. • DCCT/NGSP results on Konelab correlate well with the results from HPLC
NGSP certified HbA1c test on Konelab Method correlation to the reference laboratory
Fully automated HbA1c • HbA1c with automated pretreatment • SW version needed: 7.1 • Dedicated sample segment • Reagents: • Test kit, 981925 or 981926 HbA1c without any modifications • HbA1c Pretreatment liquid, 981924, ready for use • In barcoded system vessel • Kit size 12 x 20 ml, estimated for 1000 samples • Highlights: • Automated, savings in manpower and consumables • Minimized operator to operator variation
Automated HbA1c – eliminate all unnecessary steps Materials needed for manual pretreated HbA1c test When automated
