Title: [Candidate selected method for the enzymatic determination of total cholesterol in serum]. Author: Kattermann R, Kupke IR, Borner K, Assmann G, Eggstein M, Gambert P, Heuck CC, Kreutz FH, Seidel D, Siekmann L, Stamm D, Wieland H. Journal: J Clin Chem Clin Biochem; 1983 Jun; 21(6):347-55. PubMed ID: 6886635. Abstract: An enzymatic method is described for the determination of total cholesterol in serum using a single aqueous reagent which can easily be prepared from commercial substrates and enzymes. The determination is carried out manually, the resulting stable chromogen is measured at a wavelength of 500-550 nm. The cholesterol concentration may be calculated either using a primary cholesterol standard or a constant factor for a given wavelength. The reliability of the method is reported: Data for the imprecision are given on the basis of a survey in 3 laboratories, the accuracy is established by comparison with a definitive and a reference method. Analytical and biological interferances are briefly discussed and results with this enzymatic method are reported concerning the reference values for serum cholesterol.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
