LOINC display name : Glycerol Calc (S) [Moles/Vol];
LOINC long common name : Glycerol [Moles/volume] in Serum by calculation;
LOINC short name : Glycerol Ser Calc-sCnc;
LOINC description : Glycerol concentration calculated based on the difference between triglyceride (TG)
and glycerol-corrected TG measurements. Triglyceride is normally measured based on
the amount of glycerol present after TG hydrolysis, but in certain conditions such
as glycerol kinase deficiency, free glycerol is significantly elevated, which causes
TG to appear falsely elevated. To account for this, free glycerol is removed prior
to TG hydrolysis to get a true representation of the triglyceride measurement (glycerol-corrected
TG) [LOINC: 94865-3].;
