The High-density Lipoprotein Test Strip（Dry Chemistry） work with the Analysis Meter to measure the High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL) concentration in whole blood, plasma and serum. For professional use.

MEASUREMENT RANGE

0.39-2.59 mmol/L (15-100 mg/dL)

Note: for high density lipoprotein cholesterol test, 1mmol/L=38.66mg/dL.

Results below the ranges will show “Lo”, and results above the ranges will show “HI”.

PRINCIPLE

The High-density Lipoprotein Test Strip（Dry Chemistry） use a timed-endpoint method to measure the High Density LipoproteinCholesterol (HDL) concentrations in whole blood,serum or plasma. The system monitors the change in absorbance at 620 nm at a fixed-time interval. The change in absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration of lipid in the specimen.

HDL: The dextran slulphate/Mg²⁺ on the test strip precipitates the chylomicrons, VLDL and LDL,leaving HDL in the specimen. The cholesterol concentration of this HDL is then determined enzymatically, the same as TC.

Reference values are listed in the chart below:

Desirable： ≥1.5mmol/L(60mg/dL)

Borderline High： Men: 1.5 -1.0 mmol/L (60-40mg/dL)； Women: 1.5 -1.3 mmol/L (60-50 mg/dL)

High：Men: <1.0 mmol/L (40 mg/dL)；Women: <1.3 mmol/L (50 mg/dL)

Reference ranges may vary between laboratories. Every laboratory should establish its own reference range as needed.

Blood lipid levels will have big physiological fluctuations depending on food consumed or exercise.
