QuickDetect™ Total cholesterol (Rat) ELISA Kit

Cholesterol, is an organic molecule, a sterol (or modified steroid), a type of lipid molecule, and is biosynthesized by all animal cells, in which it is an essential structural component of animal cell membranes that is required to maintain both membrane structural integrity and fluidity. Cholesterol enables animal cells to dispense with a cell wall, thereby allowing animal cells to change shape and animals to move. Total cholesterol is a measure of the total amount of cholesterol in blood, including low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. BioVision’s QuickDetect™ total cholesterol ELISA kit is a sandwich ELISA assay for measuring the quantity of total cholesterol in rat serum, plasma and cell culture and other biological fluid. The entire process can be performed within 90 minutes with fewer incubation and wash steps respectively, resulting less errors and more consistent results.
