The CHOD-POD method is a widely used enzymatic colorimetric method for quantitative total cholesterol determination.
Cholesterol esters are enzymatically processed and cholesterol is subsequently oxidised, producing reaction products that participate in a peroxidase-mediated colour reaction. The measured colour intensity is related to the cholesterol concentration in the specimen.
The exact wavelength, sample volume, reagent volume, calibration settings, reaction timing and analyser programming should always be taken from the current Erba Mannheim Instructions for Use supplied with the actual reagent lot.
Erba SYSPACK™ / XL System Pack reagents are dedicated clinical chemistry reagents designed for compatible Erba XL analyser platforms.

Always verify compatibility against the exact analyser model, software configuration and current manufacturer application documentation.
Total Cholesterol is a routinely measured lipid parameter and is commonly assessed as part of cardiovascular and metabolic risk evaluation.
Cholesterol testing may be included in:
Total cholesterol should not be interpreted independently. It is commonly evaluated together with HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and other clinical risk factors.
| Parameter | General Laboratory Relevance |
|---|---|
| Total Cholesterol | Overall circulating cholesterol measurement |
| HDL Cholesterol | High-density lipoprotein cholesterol |
| LDL Cholesterol | Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol |
| Triglycerides | Major circulating triglyceride measurement |
Laboratories using compatible Erba XL systems can combine CHOL 440 with related Erba lipid-profile reagents such as:
