Cholesterol is a sterol and lipid present in the cell membranes, and is transported in the bloodstream of all animals
BioAssay Systems’ EnzyChrom™ Cholesterol Assay uses a single Working Reagent that combines cholesterol ester hydrolysis, oxidation and color reaction in one step. The color intensity of the reaction product at 570nm or fluorescence intensity at λex/em = 530/585nm is directly proportional to total cholesterol concentration in the sample.
It is used to form cell membranes and hormones, and plays important roles in cell signaling processes. Elevated levels (hypercholesterolemia) have been associated with cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis; whereas, low levels (hypocholesterolemia) may be linked to depression, cancer and cerebral hemorrhage. Simple, direct and automation-ready. Procedures for measuring cholesterol are very desirable.
