Triglycerides
Triglycerides
(GPO-PAP Method)
Wavelength/ Filter : 546 nm
For the determination of Triglycerides in serum and plasma
(For In vitro Diagnostic use only) Temperature : R.T/37°C
Light Path : 1 cm
SUMMARY:
Triglycerides are the form of fatty acid esters. They are produced in the liver by binding Pipette into clean dry test tube labeled as Blank (B), Standard (S) and Test (T)
glycerol and other fatty acids. They are transported by VLDL and LDL and act as a storage Addition Sequence B(µl) S(µl) T(µl)
source for energy.

PRINCIPLE:
Standard(S) - 10 -
Lipoprotein Lipase
Triglycerides Glycerol + Free fatty acids Sample - - 10
Glycerol Kinase Mix well and incubate at 37°C for 10 min or at R.T. for 15 min. Measure the
Glycerol + ATP Glycerol 3 Phosphate + ADP absorbance of the standard (Absorbance of Standard) and test Sample (Absorbance
Glycerol 3 PO of Test) against reagent blank at 546 nm within 60 min.
Glycerol 3 Phosphate + O2 Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate + H2O2
Peroxidase CALCULATION:
H2O2 + 4 Aminoantipyrine + Phenol Purple Quinoneimine dye + H2O Absorbance of Test
The intensity of the color formed is directly proportional to the amount of Triglycerides Triglycerides in mg/dl = --------------------------------------- × 200
