The document describes a method for determining cholesterol and HDL cholesterol levels in serum or plasma samples. It involves using enzymatic reactions to measure total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol concentrations, which are important biomarkers for cardiovascular health. The method details the reagents, assay procedure, calculations, reference values and notes on sample stability and interference.

For the determination of Cholesterol and Pipette into a centrifuge tube : HDL Cholesterol in serum. Serum / Plasma 200 µl (For In vitro Diagnostic Use Only) HDL Reagent (A2) 300 µl SUMMARY: Mix well allow to stand at R.T. for 5 minutes. Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes to get a Cholesterol is the main lipid found In blood, bile and brain tissues. It Is the main lipid associated with clear supernatant. arteriosclerotic vascular diseases. It Is required for the formation of steroids and cellular If the supernatant is not clear (high TGL Level) dilute the sample 1:1 with normal Saline, (result membranes. x 2) The liver metabolises the cholesterol and It is transported In the blood stream by lipoproteins. Step 2 - For Total and HDL Cholesterol: Pipette into 4 test tubes labeled Blank (B), Standard (S), Total Cholesterol (Tc) and HDL PRINCIPLE: Cholesterol (TH) as shown below : Cholesterol Esterase Cholesterol esters + H2O Cholesterol + Fatty acids Addition Sequence B(µl) S(µl) TC(µl) TH(µl) Cholesterol Oxidase Cholesterol Reagent (A1) 1000 1000 1000 1000 Cholesterol + O2 Cholestenone+ H2O2 Standard (S) - 10 - - Peroxidase H202 + 4 Aminoantipyrine+ Phenol Red Quinoneimine dye + H2O Specimen - - 10 - Supernatant (from Step 1) - - - 100 Intensity of the colour formed is directly proportional to the amount of cholesterol present in the Mix well and Incubate for 5 minutes at 37°C (or) 10 minutes at R.T. Read the absorbances of sample. Standard (S), Total Cholesterol (Tc) and HDL Cholesterol (TH ) against Blank (B) at 505 nm or with green filter (500 - 540 nm).

NORMAL REFERENCE VALUES: Total Cholesterol : 130 - 250 mg/dl REAGENT PREPARATION: Reagents are ready to use for the given procedure. HDL Cholesterol (Male) : 30 - 70 mg/dl (Female) : 35 - 90 mg/dl SAMPLE : It is recommended that laboratories establish their own normal range representing its patient Serum, EDTA Plasma. Cholesterol is reported to be stable in the sample for 7 days when stored population at 2 - 8°C. The sample should preferably of 12 to 14 hours fasting. LINEARITY: GENERAL SYSTEM PARAMETER: This procedure is linear upto 1000 mg/dl. If values exceed this limit, dilute the serum with Reaction End Point Sample Vol. 10µl normal saline (NaCI 0.9%) and repeat the assay. Calculate the value using the proper dilution Wavelength 505nm (500-540nm) Reagent Vol. 1000µl factor. The linearity of HDL Cholesterol is 150 mg/dl.
