SPECIFICATION
Brand: Teco Diagnostics
Cat. No.: T531-400
Packaging: 8 x 50 mL
Number of Tests: 400 tests
Format: Powder
Method: Enzymatic
Testing Procedure: Manual
Storage Temperature: 2 – 8°C
Wavelength: 520 nm
Expected Values: 36 – 165 mg/dL
Linearity: 1000 mg/dL
Reagent Deterioration: The reagent should be discarded if: (1) The initial absorbance of the reagent against water is greater than 0.500 when measured at 520 nm; (2) The reagent fails to meet linearity claims or fails to recover stated values;(3) The reagent is turbid or displays evidence of bacterial contamination. Note: A yellow or pink coloration is normal.
Limitations of Procedure: Glycerol in rubber stoppers or in contaminated glassware will elevate triglyceride levels. Lipemic or grossly icteric samples will cause falsely elevated results consequently a patient blank should be run. Samples with gross hemolysis or high bilirubin values will produce falsely elevated triglyceride values. A number of drugs and substances affect the measurement of triglyceride.
