20110195522 | ASSAY FOR GENERATION OF A LIPID PROFILE USING FLUORESCENCE MEASUREMENT - The present invention relates to a method of generating a lipid profile for a sample solution. The method comprising: a first step of determining the concentration of total lipoprotein in a first aliquot of the sample using fluorescence analysis; a second step of determining the concentration of total cholesterol in a second aliquot of the sample using fluorescence analysis; and optionally a third step of determining the concentration of HDL in a third aliquot of the sample using fluorescence analysis. The concentrations of the total lipoprotein, and of total cholesterol may be used to calculate other lipid components and thereby generate a lipid profile. The invention also concerns apparatus that may be used to perform the method of the invention. | 08-11-2011 |
