The Poly-Chem 90 Direct LDL-Cholesterol test system is an in vitro diagnostic procedure intended to measure low density lipoprotens quantitatively in human serum on the Poly-Chem 90 analyzer. LDL Cholesterol results are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis and various other liver and renal diseases, and for the assessment for the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

The Poly-Chem 90 Cholesterol test system is an in vitro diagnostic procedure intended to measure cholesterol quantitatively in human serum on the Poly-Chem 90 analyzer. Cholesterol measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders, lipoprotein metabolism disorders and atherosclerosis.

The Poly-Chem 90 Triglycerides test system is an in vitro diagnostic procedure intended to measure triglyceride quantitatively in human serum on the Poly-Chem 90 analyzer. Triglycerides measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disease involving lipid metabolism and various endocrine disorders e.g. diabetes mellitus, nephrosis and liver obstruction.
