Subjects enrolled in the study will have clinical type 1 diabetes managed with rapid acting insulin. After consent and enrollment, they will arrive to the study visit having fasted the night before. Subjects will be given a meal, and will be given an insulin injection for this meal, calculated based on their prescribed meal to carbohydrate ratio as well as a correction bolus to correct their current plasma glucose value down to 40 mg/dL based on their prescribed insulin sensitivity factor. Following the insulin injection, subjects will eat breakfast and be observed in the clinic setting. Blood, breath, and sweat samples will be collected throughout the study visit with increased frequency of collection during hypoglycemia. Collaborators with the MITRE Corporation will perform analyses on these samples to identify any relationships between volatile organic compounds in breath and sweat and hypoglycemia. After subjects reach the hypoglycemia threshold, they will be allowed to eat and drink and their blood sugar will be monitored for stability prior to discharge.
