THE TRUE WEIGHT OF RISK IN LIPID PROFILING

sdLDL-C 70 mg/dL
Small-dense LDL Cholesterol (sdLDL-C), a subtype of LDL cholesterol, can more readily permeate the inner arterial wall
making sdLDL-C particularly atherogenic. Research indicates that individuals with a predominance of sdLDL-C have
a three-fold increased risk of myocardial infarction. Until recently, the primary methods of assessing a patients sdLDL-C
were based on the laborious and time consuming ultracentrifugation and electrophoresis method. The Randox sdLDL-C
assay utilizes the quantitative “Denka Seiken” method which facilitates faster patient diagnosis and treatment plan
implementation, for use on a wide range of biochemistry analyzers.
