Background
The Diazyme High-density lipoprotein III (HDL3) Assay is a homogeneous enzymatic assay for use in the quantitative determination of HDL3 in human serum. Diazyme's HDL3 Assay is a cost effective, homogenous, direct assay for the fast and easy quantification of HDL3 cholesterol.
Studies show that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is known to be a negative risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD). HDL can be further divided into two major subclasses, larger, more buoyant HDL2 particles and smaller, more dense HDL3 particles. These studies suggest that measuring these HDL subclasses better reflects CHD risk than measurement of total HDL.1-8
