Homocysteine is an intermediate product of methionine and cysteine metabolism. It is an indicator of blood lipid examination. The detection standard is 5-15μmol/L. If the detection result is 15μmol/L, it is necessary to be alert to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as coronary atherosclerotic heart disease and cerebral infarction.
