Reaction rate studies of two enzymatic cholesterol reagent kits. 1978

S Y Chu, and V E Turkington

Reaction rate studies were carried out on various specimens using two commercial enzymatic cholesterol determination reagent kits (BMC and Worthington). The time required for complete colour formation differed between the two reagent systems and each kit required different incubation times for the standards and specimens to come to color completion. The choice of standards was found to be very important when using these enzymatic kits.
