Abstract
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.
