[Rapid and Noninvasive Detection of Skin Cholesterol with Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy Technology].

Due to the urgent need for noninvasive detection of skin cholesterol, a portable, intelligent and real-time skin diffuse reflectance spectroscopy measurement system was designed based on a micro-spectrometer. Digitonin-horseradish peroxidase copolymer solution was prepared. According to the properties digitonin binds to the hydroxy of cholesterol molecular specifically and the horseradish peroxidase reacts with TMB color solution (the main component is 3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine ) a color change was produced, by which the skin cholesterol was identified and instructed with high sensitivity and high specificity, and the concentration of skin cholesterol was quantified by measuring the degree of color change.
