LOINC short name : Trigl Glycer cor Ser-mCnc;

LOINC description : Used to differentiate true hypertriglyceridemia from pseudohypertriglyceridemia. Triglyceride is normally measured by hydrolyzing triglycerides and measuring the amount of glycerol, but in certain conditions such as glycerol kinase deficiency, free glycerol is significantly elevated, which causes triglyceride to appear falsely elevated. In this assay, free glycerol is removed prior to hydrolysis, so that the glycerol measurement after hydrolysis is a true representation of the triglyceride measurement.;
