Figure 5. Insulin secretory response to physiologic glucose challenge assessed by decrease of quinacrine fluorescence in β-cells following culture in high (22.3 mM) glucose (A) and control culture in 5.6 mM glucose (B). C, Rate of quiniacrine fluorescence decrease. Numbers above the bar indicate the number of recordings.
