Product Overview
The cholesterol carried by Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) termed LDL-cholesterol. LDL carries cholesterol produced in the liver throughout the body, and when present in large amounts in the blood, it deposits and accumulates in blood vessel walls, causing atherosclerosis and resulting in myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction.
In humans, the normal range of LDL-cholesterol is less than 140 mg/dL, and more than 140 mg/dL is considered to reflect hyper-LDL cholesterolemia.
LabAssay™ LDL-Cholesterol is a kit designed to measure LDL-cholesterol samples. With the use of a microplate, this kit provides a quick and convenient method for measuring LDL-cholesterol in samples. In addition, our kit do not require fractionation of lipoproteins by centrifugation.

Example of Calibration Curve

Assay Principle
1) The first reaction(elimination of non-LDL cholesterol)
The block polymer containing hydrophilic and hydrophobic moiety in Pretreatment selectively binds to LDL in the specimens, and protects it from enzyme (CHE, CO) reactions. CHE and CO react with non-LDL lipoprotein [chylomicron (CM), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL)]. Hydrogen peroxide produced by the enzyme reactions with non-LDL cholesterol is decomposed to water by catalase in Pretreatment reagent.

2) The second reaction(color reaction of LDL-cholesterol)
When Reacting Solution is added, the cholesterol and its derivatives in LDL produce hydrogen peroxide by CHE and CO. Hydrogen peroxide produced by the enzyme reactions with LDL-cholesterol yields a blue color pigment upon oxidative condensation with N-(3-sulfopropyl)-3-methoxy-5-methylaniline (HMMPS) and 4-aminoantipyrine in the presence of peroxidase (POD). The amount of LDL-cholesterol contained in the sample is determined by measuring the absorbance of the blue color.

Dilution Linearity Test
Serum and plasma (EDTA) from human, mouse and rat spiked with the standard, were serially diluted twofold with buffer in this kit and measured in duplicate to assess linearity.






[Result]
All measurement results showed good linearity within the measurement range
Spike and Recovery Test
Standard solutions at three concentrations were added to serum/plasma (EDTA) from human, mouse and rat. Next, spike recovery tests were conducted, with each measurement performed in duplicate.

FAQ
About sample
- What specimens should I use?
- Use fresh specimens. Do not use specimens after repeated freeze-thawing as this may denature lipoproteins.
- Which anticoagulants can I use?
- Anticoagulants such as heparin, citrate and EDTA do not significantly influence the assay when used in normal amounts.
- What should I do with samples that exceed the measurable range?
- Dilute specimen with saline and repeat the assay if the measured value exceeds the measurable range, and multiply the result by the dilution factor.
- How should I do when triglyceride in the specimen exceeds 1,000 mg/dL?
- When triglyceride in the specimen exceeds 1,000 mg/dL, dilute the specimen with saline and multiply the result by the dilution factor.
