What does it detect?
A complete kit at home called a lipid profile has dual names. It is a kit using our equipment to measure the amount of fat and triglycerides in your blood. But, this check is the main part of a cardiovascular risk assessment. Or cardiovascular monitoring in cases of Pancreatitis or patients monitoring response to treatments.
5 BioMarkers:
Total: the total amount of fat present in the blood.
LDL: Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is “bad” fat. High LDL levels raise your risk of stroke, heart attack and atherosclerosis.
HDL: High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is “good” fat as it helps eliminate LDL.
Triglycerides: Triglycerides are the body’s form of fat storage. They are found in fatty tissues and circulate in the blood to fuel muscles to work.
Total Fat/ HDL: this ratio of fat/ HDL is used to measure cardiovascular risk.

To Qualify for any return, the Kit must be in the same condition as when you received it. It is not used, not opened, unworn, and in its original packaging. You will also need to send it to us with the receipt or proof of purchase.
We offer next-day delivery; however, courier delivery times are out of our control. We are unable to offer refunds for any late deliveries. But you will receive courier tracking information once your order has been dispatched. Orders placed by 1 pm are dispatched on the same day.
A: It is a soft, fat-like, waxy substance in the bloodstream and all your body’s cells.
Q: What can HDL do?
A: HDL is one of the major controllable risk factors for coronary heart disease, heart attack and stroke.
Q: What can LDL do?
A: When too much LDL (bad) circulates in the blood, it can slowly build up in the inner walls of the arteries that feed the heart and brain.
Q: What is Atherosclerosis?
A: Arteriosclerosis is a general term for the thickening and hardening of arteries. Some hardening of arteries normally occurs when people grow older.
Q: How does atherosclerosis start?
A: It’s a complex process. Exactly how atherosclerosis begins or what causes it isn’t known, but some theories have been proposed.
Q: Are there any symptoms if you have elevated levels?
A: High levels are not always a reason to worry, as there are no symptoms. HDL is just one of many things that can increase your risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Interpretations
What is the Scientific Data from Instrument and Reagent Supplier?
Technology Method:
Fully automatic biochemistry analyser
Limit of Detection:
Total Cholesterol: 1.29 mmol/L
HDL: 1 U/L
LDL: 10 U/L
Triglycerides: 10 U/L
Total cholesterol/HDL: N/A (Calculated)
Accuracy and Precision:
Total Cholesterol: The approximate error is ≤ ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 3%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 5%.
HDL: The approximate error is ≤ ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 4%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 6%.
LDL: The approximate error is ≤ ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 5%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 10%.
Triglycerides: The approximate error is ≤ ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 4%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 6%.
The accuracy relies on the approximate error percentage. This percentage is the percentage deviation from the actual result. The precision relies on the within-assay coefficient of variations and the between-assay coefficient. The within-assay coefficient of variations is the variance of the result value if the same test was analysed again. The between assay coefficient is the variance of the result value if the same sample was reprocessed from the beginning again.
