Abstract

Lipid content of extracts based on atherosclerotic plaque layers irradiated by XeCl laser was compared with that prepared from atherosclerotic tissue before irradiation. In addition, spectra of cholesterol solutions were recorded before and after influence of laser beam. Up to 20% of laser energy was discovered to be exhausted for dissociation of lipid molecules.
