  • Diagnostic gum for screening diabetes
    Patent number: 8257940
    Abstract: A diagnostic chewing gum for identifying a risk for diabetes includes a mixture of an enzyme, a conjugated protein of the glucose enzyme, a substrate, and a gum base. The enzyme and the conjugated protein facilitate a conversion of the substrate to produce a detectable signal in the presence of glucose to produce a detectable change in the gum. In use, the gum is chewed, the resulting change in the gum is compared against a chart, and the risk for diabetes is determined from the chart.
