Medline can be used for more than just clinical questions! - "Evaluation of
an Electrochemical sensor for measuring Blood Ketones"  Diabetes Care 2000,
vol 23, p500-503.  By a group at Hope Hospital Salford.  They didn't state
whether fresh whole blood was used at the bed side or aliquots taken into ?a
plain tube, Li Hep, fluoride which according to the manufacturers
instructions should NOT be used.  This is also awkward for carrying out
comparisons in the lab.
