| Experimental groups | Fructosamine (mM) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | |
| BSA/glucose | 80.25±1.3 | 83.64±1.2 | 84.95±1.2c | 87.25±0.5 |
| BSA/glucose/CFH (0.30 mg/ml) | 81.23±1.2 | 83.91±1.2a | 86.21±1.2a | 88.38±1.3a |
| BSA/glucose/CFH (0.60 mg/ml) | 78.73±1.2a | 82.14±1.2b | 84.82±1.2c | 86.94±1.5d |
| BSA/glucose/CFH (1.2 mg/ml) | 76.54±1.0a | 78.93±1.8b | 81.02±0.5c | 84.85±1.0d |
| BSA/glucose/CFH (2.5 mg/ml) | 76.21±1.3a | 78.85±0.9b | 80.95±0.7c | 82.44±0.8d |
| BSA/glucose/CFH (5 mg/ml) | 75.71±1.2a | 77.87±1.3b | 79.54±1.6c | 80.74±1.3d |
| BSA/glucose/AG (5 mg/ml) | 75.32±1.2a | 77.51±1.5b | 78.12±1.3c | 79.59±0.7d |
Results are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 3). ap < 0.05 when compared to BSA/glucose at week 1; bp < 0.05 when compared to BSA/glucose at week 2; cp < 0.05 when compared to BSA/glucose at week 3; dp < 0.05 when compared to BSA/fructose at week 4.
