  • Title: [Comparison of two cholesterol determination methods in children (author's transl)].
    Author: Menzinger P, Sitzmann FC.
    Journal: Klin Padiatr; 1979 Jan; 191(1):61-5. PubMed ID: 569734.
    Abstract:
    In 792 children aged 1 day-16 years cholesterol in serum was determined by two different methods: the well-known Liebermann-Burchard-reaction and the new enzymatical colorimetric test (Boehringer). The later procedure is simple and reliable. The cholesterol values got by this method amounted to 20 mg/dl lower. But it is not allowed to use a conversion-factor. The values in newborns and infants were significantly lower than these found in school childrens and adults.
