Objective: To assess glucose tolerance and blood glucose response over time
Protocol Steps
1
Dietary conditioning
Feed mice with cafeteria diet for 10 weeks
View evidence from paper
“After a 10‐week CAF diet, the IPGTT was performed”
2
Fasting period
Fast mice for 12 hours before the test
View evidence from paper
“the IPGTT was performed after fasting for 12 h”
3
Glucose injection
Inject glucose intraperitoneally at 2 g/kg body weight
View evidence from paper
“glucose was injected into mice at 2 g/kg of body weight”
4
Blood glucose monitoring
Measure blood glucose at baseline and multiple time points
View evidence from paper
“Blood glucose was measured at zero time and 30, 60 and 120 min”
5
Assessment
Assess blood glucose tolerance based on measurements
