Cholesterol is an important amphipathic molecule and essential structural constituent of all animal cells.It is made up of a hydrocarbon chain, four hydrocarbon ring structure napoleon concealer and a hydroxyl group.It is also used in Vitamin D biosynthesis.Cholesterol is of two types: LDL (low-density lipoproteins, bad cholesterol) and HDL chocolate chip cookie purse (high-density lipoproteins, good cholesterol.

High cholesterol increase risk of coronary heart disease.Proposed work describes a unique approach of immobilizing cholesterol oxidase onto TiO2NPs, modified Pencil Graphite electrode and its application in construction of an amperometric biosensor for determination of serum cholesterol.
