| Abstract: | Pretreatment of a serum or plasma sample with ascorbate oxidase removed interfering ascorbate and allowed the determination of cholesterol to be carried out by a current enzymatic cholesterol method available in kit form. The Cobas-Fara was programmed to carry out pretreatment of the sample with ascorbate oxidase before addition of the cholesterol colour reagent. |
