Comparison of three automated methods of serum tirglyceride analysis.
Two new automated methods for serum triglyceride analysis are described and compared with each other and with an established chemical method. They are a chemical method requiring no glycerol blank correction and a commercially available fully enzymatic method requiring no prior lipid extraction. Both methods had higher quality control precision and faster sampling rates than the established method. Comparison of duplicate analyses of a random series of serum samples by all three methods gave a closer correlation between the new methods than between either and the conventional method.
