Abstract:
In order to lead a healthy life, it is important for a human being to know his/her blood level parameters. The human blood has over 100 constituents of which Cholesterol is an important parameter, which needs to be estimated for health purposes. It is necessary to develop an instrument to measure blood constituents non-invasively which would be user friendly, portable and reliable. This manuscript describes the algorithm to estimate Blood Cholesterol. Here the PLS and NIPALS algorithm is explained. The manuscript includes the data obtained for Cholesterol dissolved in water as per percentage found in the human blood. The data thus obtained will be fed to a multivariate system programmed in FPGA device to estimate the cholesterol concentration. The studies on other blood constituents such as Glucose, Alanine, Lactate, etc. are in progress. The results shown are in the RF absorption range of 10MHz-4GHz.
