About Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is a targeted clinical chemistry laboratory test that tracks the blood-glucose response to a measured oral glucose load over timed collections. The result is primarily used for diabetes and gestational diabetes and can provide objective laboratory evidence for clinical assessment or follow-up. A properly collected plasma specimen is analysed using Serial glucose measurement, with the reported value or finding interpreted against the laboratory's validated procedure and applicable reference information. Results should be interpreted in clinical context and should not be used in isolation to start, stop or change treatment without an appropriate healthcare professional.
Sample & Submission Guide
How to package the sample
Collect blood into the anticoagulant tube specified by the receiving laboratory, mix gently, and separate plasma by centrifugation within the required pre-analytical window. Transfer the plasma into a clean, labelled, leak-proof polypropylene aliquot tube without disturbing the cell layer. Keep the separated specimen refrigerated at 2–8°C for short transport unless the laboratory specifies frozen storage. Place the aliquot in a sealed biohazard bag with absorbent material and avoid unnecessary freeze-thaw cycles. For Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), use packaging and preservation compatible with Serial glucose measurement; if the receiving laboratory supplies a dedicated collection kit, bottle or transport medium, that kit takes precedence over general packaging guidance.
