This educational application offers a detailed simulation of the process of separating and quantifying high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) from serum or plasma samples. Ideal for students and healthcare professionals, the application guides you through the steps necessary to perform a lipogram, an essential part of the lipid profile.
At the end of this virtual experiment, you will be able to:
Understand the basis for separating HDLs for specific quantification of cholesterol associated with them (HDL-C).
Carry out simulations of preparation of the precipitating solution with dextran sulfate and magnesium ions.
Simulate the sample incubation process, centrifugation and collection of the supernatant for HDL-C quantification.
Interpret the results obtained through spectrophotometry simulations to measure the cholesterol present in HDLs.
This application simulates a biochemistry laboratory environment, where you can learn about the necessary safety precautions when handling biological material and interpreting biochemical test results.
