Q

REFERENCE METHOD FOR CHOLESTEROL AND TRIGLYCERIDES: GC-MS

CHOLESTEROL: Abell-Kendall ➡️GC-MS
TRIGLYCERIDE: Modification of van Handel and Zilversmit ➡️ GC-MS

A

CHOLESTEROL MEASUREMENT
In the past, the reference method for cholesterol involved hexane extraction after hydrolysis with alcoholic KOH followed by reaction with Liebermann-Burchard color reagent, which comprises sulfuric and acetic acids and acetic anhydride.

Recently, the reference method has changed to a gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) method that now specifically measures cholesterol and does not detect related sterols.

TRIGLYCERIDE MEASUREMENT
Like the reference method for cholesterol, the CDC has recently switched to a GC–MS method that involves the hydrolysis of fatty acids on triglycerides and the measurement of glycerol.

Q
  1. Urine for routine urinalysis: 10 to 15 ml urine (50 ml-container capacity)
  2. Urine for drug testing: 30 to 45 ml (60 ml-container capacity)

A
  1. Before blood is collected from the radial artery in the wrist, one should do a MODIFIED ALLEN TEST to determine whether the ulnar artery can provide collateral circulation to the hand after the radial artery puncture.

Q
  1. Central Venous Assess (CVA) collection: eliminates multiple phlebotomies and surgical situations. Five (5) ml of blood must be drawn and discarded to eliminate contaminants. CVA is not recommended for bacteriology (organisms can contaminate specimen)
  2. Order of draw from CATHETER LINES: First 3 to 5 ml blood is discarded THEN, blood culture, anticoagulated tubes and clot tubes.
A
  1. Donor bleeding: 45 degree angle to the skin, make a quick clean puncture; once in the skin, reduce the angle of the needle to about 10 to 20 degrees
  2. Anaerobic and require ICE slurry (immediate cooling): Lactic acid, ammonia, blood gas (if not analyzed within 30 min = ↓ pH, and po2), iCa+2 (heparinized whole blood if not analyzed within 30 min)
