Design and Optimization of Cholesterol Biosensor

N. M. Sundaram[1], M. Alagappan[1]
[1]PSG College of Technology Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India

Cholesterol is an essential lipid for human body. The desired total plasma cholesterol for an individual is less than 5.2 mM (200 mg/dL) and it poses a potential health threat when the level is greater than 6.2 mM (240 mg/dL) [1]. Excessive plasma cholesterol causes poor cardiovascular ... Read More
