Ames Reflectance Meter

 

Ames Reflectance Meter bu meter glucose di n'obara nke mbu. O na ekwe Ka ndi nwere Oria sugar ji aka ha na ele otu glucose di n'obara ha.

Anton H. Clemens mepụtara Ames Reflectance Meter na 1970. O nwere agịga nke gosipụtara ike nke ìhè na-acha anụnụ anụnụ nke sitere na mpempe akwụkwọ, nke a na-akpọ Dextrostix. Mita ahụ nyere ọnụ ọgụgụ nke jikọtara ya na ọkwa glucose n'ọbara nke Dextrostix gosipụtara.[1]

E mepụtara Dextrostix ihe dị ka afọ iri tupu mgbe ahụ. Ọ bụ mpempe akwụkwọ nwere kemịkal na-adịghị agagharị na ya. Mgbe a na-etinye mpempe akwụkwọ ahụ n'ime ọbara, ọ gbanwere ụcha ya ka ọ bụrụ anụnụ anụnụ. Ezigbo onyinyo nke acha anụnụ anụnụ dabere na ọkwa glucose dị n'ọbara.[2]

Mita ahụ dị ihe dị ka pound 3 ma ree ya maka $ 650. A na-ere ya na mbụ n'ọfịs ndị dọkịta, ọ bụghị ndị ọrịa. Otu nwoke na-arịa ọrịa shuga, Richard K. Bernstein, jisiri ike zụta otu n'ihi na nwunye ya bụ dọkịta. O jiri igwe ahụ mee ihe iji kọwaa mgbanwe kwa ụbọchị na ọkwa glucose n'ọbara ya. Ihe ọmụma a nyere ya ohere ijikwa nri ya na ọgwụ Insulin ya nke ọma iji mee ka ọ dịgide, dị mma n'ọbara.
