photoThis liquid autoHDL reagent uses a two-reagent, liquid, stable technology for its autoHDL Cholesterol kit.
     The autoHDL cholesterol assay is a homogeneous method for directly measuring serum HDL-C levels without the need for any offline pretreatment. The first reagent contains alpha-cyclodextrin and dextran sulfate to stabilize LDL, VLDL and chylomicrons. The second reagent contains PEG modified enzymes which selectively react with the cholesterol present in the HDL cholesterol being measured.
     The assay is linear to 150mg/dl. Comparison studies between the designated comparison method (DMC) and the autoHDL method gave a linear regression equation of y=0.93 + 3.85 mg/dl, r=0.989. The reagent is supplied in 40ml, 80ml and 320ml kit configurations.
