EnzyChrom™ HDL and LDL/VLDL Assay Kit

Application

• For quantitative determination of HDL and LDL/VLDL cholesterol and evaluation of drug effects on HDL and LDL/VLDL metabolism.

Key Features

• Sensitive and accurate. Requires only 20 µL serum sample. The detection limit of 5 mg/dL, linearity up to 300 mg/dL cholesterol in 96-well plate assay.
• Convenient. Room temperature assay. No 37°C heater is needed.
• Convenient and high-throughput. Homogeneous “mix-incubate-measure” type assay. Can be readily automated on HTS liquid handling systems for processing thousands of samples per day.

More Details

Would you please confirm me cat# EHDL-100 can be used for Rat or not?

Yes, the assay is not species-specific and works with rat serum samples.

Could they be used with lung tissue homogenates?

Yes, but the EnzyChrom™ HDL and LDL/VLDL assay kits were developed for serum samples to detect the various transport forms of cholesterol. For tissue samples I would rather recommend using our cholesterol assay kits ECCH-100/E2CH-100.

We would like to know if, during the procedure and before the OD measurement, the reagent added to the serum inactivates hepathitis C virus.

No. The EHDL-100 assay reagents will not inactivate hepatitis C virus, or any other virus.
