| name | Triglyceride [Mass/volume] corrected for glycerol in Serum | ||
| 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. | ||

| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
| system | Ser = Serum | ||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256 | ||
