The use of quartz crystal microbalance(QCM) for monitoring in situ the adsorption of low-density lipoprotein(LDL) onto cholesterol modified dextran(CMD) was described. The kinetic studies were made.

Because the second kind, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), get smaller and smaller until they're tiny enough to enter the walls of your blood vessels and attach themselves like a bad houseguest.

There are three kinds of blood cholesterol that you should know about: high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides.
