59 krHow does the blood test take place?
- Analysis of (Apo B).
- Measures apolipoprotein B1.
- Protein component in LDL-Cholesterol.
- Recommended with (Apo A1).
Apolipoprotein B (Apo B) is the protein that helps transport LDL cholesterol, the "bad" cholesterol, in the body, which leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
By measuring Apolipoprotein B together with Apolipoprotein A can, through the ratio of these, reflect the balance between the different types of cholesterol and assess the risk of cardiovascular disease and suspicion of disturbed lipid metabolism. We recommend that you also order analysis of Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) in connection with sampling Apo A1.
