Regensburg, 06 July 2016 – The Laboratory Group Limbach is using the in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test LipoComplete from numares. Meaning Limbach’s lipid analysis service portfolio now includes a mass-market blood test for determining individual lipoprotein profiles. In addition to the standard lipid metabolism parameters (triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol), LipoComplete provides further information on the particle properties (concentration, mean diameter) of various lipoprotein subclasses, such as the highly atherogenic small dense LDL (sdLDL). The new test is designed to allow a more differentiated risk assessment of cardiovascular diseases.
