    Author: DiCesare JL.
    Journal: Clin Chem; 1975 Sep; 21(10):1448-53. PubMed ID: 1157311.
    Abstract:
    I describe optimum kinetic procedures for measuring glucose and triglycerides in plasma and serum by enzymatic techniques. Glucose was measured by the hexokinase method at a 1000-fold sample dilution. Absorbance and concentration are linearly related for concentrations up to 4 g/liter. Results are reproducible to about 25 mg/liter (standard error). Comparisons between the kinetic glucose method described here and an automated o-toluidine and a manual end-point method showed no apparent bias between the methods; correlation coefficients were 0.998 and 0.991, respectively. Triglycerides (triacylglycerols) were measured in a fully enzymatic system by measuring free glycerol after hydrolysis with lipase. Absorbance and concentration are linearly related to greater than 2.5 g/liter at a 300-fold sample dilution. Repeatability was about 30 mg/liter (standard error). Compared with a manual method, the correlation coefficient was 0.978, with a slope of 0.93.
