Product name:Human HDL-C ELISA Kit
Description:
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoproteins (chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL, HDL) which enable lipids like cholesterol and triglycerides to be transported within the water based blood stream.It is hypothesized that HDL can remove cholesterol from atheroma within arteries and transport it back to the liver for excretion or re-utilization—which is the main reason why HDL-bound cholesterol is sometimes called 'good cholesterol', or HDL-C. A high level of HDL-C seems to protect against cardiovascular diseases, and low HDL cholesterol levels increase the risk for heart disease
