Description
The amount of urinary C-peptide (U-CPR) is a good parameter for estimating the insulin secretory ability of diabetic patients. However, a preservative must be added to urine samples to prevent reductions in the CPR level. Sodium azide (NaN3) is a routinely used preservative, but its use and handling are strictly controlled. A new preservative, composed mainly of Na2CO3, has been developed as a safer preservative. We examined the effects of this new preservative by comparing the 24-hr U-CPR levels obtained at 4°C and 28°C with or without NaN3 or Na2CO3. The C-peptide level was measured using two commercially available assay kits. The levels of U-CPR in urine samples kept at 28°C and containing Na2CO3 were well correlated with the levels of U-CPR in samples kept at 4°C and were higher than those in any other sample. Among the other urine components commonly measured by laboratories, urea nitrogen, creatinine and chloride were measured without any interference. This newly-eveloped preservative was therefore found to be a useful alternative to NaN3 for the accurate measurement of U-CPR levels.
