Basal RateIn biology, basal rate is a rate of continuous supply of some chemical or process. In the case of diabetes mellitus, it is a low rate of insulin supply needed for such purposes as controlling cellular glucose and amino acid uptake. An insulin pump is one way to arrange for a closely controlled basal insulin rate. The constant release insulins (e.g, Glargine) can provide a similar effect.
