What are the assay limitations?
The GlycoMark evaluation studies by Nowatzke W. et al. indicate that there is very little interference from triglyceride, hemoglobin or bilirubin (<10% to concentrations of 12.6 mmol/l, 12.1 ug/ml and 911.4 ug/ml, respectively. The GlycoMark manufacturer’s data agrees with these results. They note that GlycoMark is unaffected by glucose to 1,000 mg/dL, maltose to 500 mg/dL, ascorbic acid to 25 mg/dL, uric acid to 20 mg/dL, creatinine to 10 mg/dL and urea to 20mg/dL.
