The Lipid Pro Lipid Profile & Glucose Measuring System, or Lipid Pro Meter, is a professional level occupational health device for measuring cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose.
Why would you need to monitor the levels of these substances?
Monitoring glucose is important for any that struggle with diabetes to give an indication of their blood sugar levels. Diabetes also increases the likelihood of having a high cholesterol level, but is not the only cause!
There are two types of cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). High levels of LDL causes fatty deposits to build up in arteries and slows blood flow. HDL aids in carrying away LDL and is important for improved blood flow. Triglycerides are are excess calories that have been converted and stored in fat cells. High levels of triglyceride can be caused by many factors. Diabetes, drinking alcohol, eating too much sugary food, being overweight and smoking are all common causes.
The Lipid Pro meter is capable of accurately measuring the levels of these given a small blood sample (0.3 – 5 μL depending on the test). Glucose levels are calculated in 3 seconds, and 2 minutes using the Lipid Profile strip to measure Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol (and LDL Cholesterol as a result) and Triglyceride simultaneously.
Benefits of this meter:
- Small (61 x 109 x 23 mm)
- Simple to use
- Quick (3 – 120 seconds test dependent)
- Requires a small blood sample volume (0.3 – 5μL test dependent )
- Measures HDL, Triglycerides, Total Cholesterol and Glucose
This unit is capable of using these test strips:
- 2.59 ~ 10.4 mmol/L Range
- 60 Second Test
- ≥ 3.6 μL Sample Volume
- 30% ~ 50% Hematocrit
- Total Cholesterol Range
2.59 ~ 10.4 mmol/L
- Triglyceride Range
0.57~ 6.78 mmol/L
- HDL Cholesterol Range
0.65 ~ 2.07 mmol/L
- 120 Second Test (Triple)
- ≥ 5 μL Sample Volume
- 30% ~ 55% Hematocrit
- 0.6 ~ 33.3 mmol/L Range
- 3 Second Test
- ≥ 0.3 μL Sample Volume
- 20% ~ 60% Hematocrit
We have added two new Lipid Pro starter packs to our online store!
“Starter Pack” – Lipid Pro Total Cholesterol
Starter Pack includes:
For measuring glucose &
total cholesterol
SKU: ND CHOLESTEROLSTARTERPACK
“Starter Pack” – Lipid Pro and Profile Strips
Starter Pack includes:
For measuring glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides
SKU: ND LIPIDSTARTERPACK
The purpose of these packs is to offer everything needed to begin measuring cholesterol and glucose with the Lipid Profile & Glucose Measuring System. The Lipid Pro and Profile Strips starter pack is recommended if measuring HDL cholesterol or Triglycerides. The Lipid Pro Total Cholesterol starter pack is recommended otherwise.
Each component is available as an individual product on our online store https://shop.ngaio.co.nz/shop, or via emailing our team at info@ngaio.co.nz.
