A simple method for the intravenous fat-tolerance test. 1979

R Redheendran, and J A Edwards, and J D Schnatz

A simple method for measuring intravenous fat tolerance with an artificial fat emulsion (intralipid) was studied and compared with the currently used method of Carlson and Rossner [J. Lab. Invest. 29, 271-280 (1972)]. The proposed method uses as little as 3 mL of whole blood to follow, by nephelometry, the elimination of intravenously administered fat emulsions. There is a high correlation between the K2 values obtained by the current method for plasma and those obtained by the proposed method (r = 0.903). The latter is simpler, quicker, and more acceptable to patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009391 Nephelometry and Turbidimetry Chemical analysis based on the phenomenon whereby light, passing through a medium with dispersed particles of a different refractive index from that of the medium, is attenuated in intensity by scattering. In turbidimetry, the intensity of light transmitted through the medium, the unscattered light, is measured. In nephelometry, the intensity of the scattered light is measured, usually, but not necessarily, at right angles to the incident light beam. Turbidimetry,Nephelometry,Turbidimetry and Nephelometry
