Principle
Glycerol released from hydrolysis of triglycerides by lipoprotein lipase is Converted by glycerol kinase into glycerol- 3- phosphate which is oxidized by glycerol phosphate oxidase to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and hydrogen peroxide. In presence of peroxidase, hydrogen peroxide oxidizes phenolic chromogen to a red coloured compound.

Quality Control
To ensure adequate quality control, it is recommended that each batch should include normal and an abnormal commercial reference control serum. It should be realized that the use of quality control material checks both instrument and reagent functions together. Factors which might affect the performance of this test include proper instrument function, temperature control, cleanliness of glassware and accuracy of pipetting.
Other Details
The kit should be stored at 2- 8°C and is stable till the expiry date indicated on the label.
The reagent and standard are ready-to-use and are stable till expiry, when stored at 2-8°C. DO NOT FREEZE THE REAGENT.
The reagent should be stored only in the amber bottle provided to protect it from direct light. Before use swirl in the reagent gently. DO NOT SHAKE VIGOROUSLY.
Over time, the reagent may develop a light pink color. This is expected and does not affect the reagent performance. Discard the reagent if the absorbance of the same exceeds 0.300O.D. against distilled water at 510 nm.
Contamination of the reagent should be strictly avoided. Should the
reagents develop turbidity and discard the reagent.
