Lipid Analysis Devices Measure Cholesterol and Help in Diagnosis and Treatment of Disorders Such As Renal and Liver Diseases, Atherosclerosis, and Diabetes

 Lipid analysis devices, also known as lipid analyzers, are used to measure cholesterol and lipoprotein. Lipid analysis plays a major role in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders such as renal and liver diseases, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. Thus, high prevalence of such diseases is expected to boost demand for lipid analyzers. For instance, according to The American Cancer Society, in 2020, the U.S. is expected to record around 42,810 new cases and around 30,160 deaths due to primary liver cancer and intrahepatic bile duct cancer.

Lipid analysis is the process of measurement of the levels of lipids present in the blood. Lipids are fat particles that are found in the body's cells, tendrils and other soft tissues. Lipids act as the storage organs for fats, chemicals, hormones, and other substances. When there is an imbalance in the level of lipids or excessive production of lipids, there may be many disorders like atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and cholesterol spasm. Adult population is more prone to such diseases. Expanded range of HDL cholesterol measurement has shown to allow lipid analysis devices to serve a larger population, which has led R&D in extended range lipid panel test strips. Such approach allows lipid analyzers to serve maximum percent of the adult population.

Low levels of certain lipids is considered to be a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers. Anemia can be caused by genetic defects, excessive fat deposition, trauma, infection, and aging. Lipid analysis devices are useful in determining the level of lipids in your blood. A wide variety of lipid analyzers are available in the market, which you can use to check your cholesterol levels. There are two types of cholesterol analyzer - the fingertip test and the blood test. With the fingertip test, a doctor inserts a tiny amount of material into the palm of your hand. The test is taken just by applying slight pressure on the tip of your finger. A doctor can check your HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and total cholesterol at the same time with this method. A blood test on the other hand requires a sample of your blood, which he analyzes under a microscope to determine the level of cholesterol in your body.
