Abstract:
Quality control survey was done on the plasma triglyceride determination of six laboratories and following results were obtained. 1) Coefficients of variation were less than 5% in 3 laboratories and over 10% in one laboratory. 2) High interlaboratory variation was inferred from the mean values ranging from 104.0~136. 4mg% (sample A) with enzyme method and 44.7~65.3 (Sample B) with acetylaceton method. 3) Establishment of normal plasma triglyceride level in Koreans and supervised quality control by the authority seemed to be urgent.
