At the clinical pathology lab you have just produced these results for Henry's samples.

Triglyceride 2.1 <2.5 mmol/L
Total cholesterol 4.4 <5 mmol/L
LDL cholesterol 3.5 <4.6 mmol/L
HbA₁ 5.2 4 - 6%
Creatinine 0.11 0.040 - 0.130 mmol/L
Urea 5.1 2.5 - 7.8 mmol/L

Alkaline phosphatase 115 30-130 U/L
Alanine aminotransferase 11 3-35 U/L
Select the TWO most wrong statements and explain why they are wrong
A. You used a blood cell counter to measure haemoglobin, MCV platelet, WBC and RBC values
B. You noted that the serum sample appeared normal as per the Fredrickson-Levy-Lee classification confirming the lipid test results
C. Glucose and HbAic were measured by waving the handheld glucose monitor over the blood smear
D. You measured alkaline phosphatase and alanine aminotransferase using high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC)
E. You conclude that Henry's blood serum tests and blood cell counts are within normal ranges
