The chemical distribution of two catalyst supports formed by elements that are difficult to distinguish by other imaging techniques was studied. Each application consists of mapping overlapped chemical elements - respectively spaced-ionization edges. Biology Glucose Uptake Measurement and Response to Insulin Stimulation in In Vitro Cultured Human Primary Myotubes Stephanie Chanon1, Christine Durand1, Aurelie Vieille-Marchiset1, Maud Robert2, Charna Dibner3, Chantal Simon1, Etienne Lefai1 1CarMeN Laboratory, INSERM U1060, INRA 1397, University of Lyon, 2Department of digestive and bariatric surgery, Obesity Integrated Center, University Hospital of Edouard Herriot, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Lyon 1 University, 3Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, Hypertension and Nutrition, Department of Clinical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva In this method, human primary muscle cells are cultured in vitro to obtain differentiated myotubes and glucose uptake rates are measured. We provide a detailed protocol to quantify rates in basal and insulin-stimulated states using radiolabeled [3H] 2-deoxy-D-Glucose.
