The sample were collected from September 2020 to October 2020, and the serum were used for measurement of glucose, cholesterol and triglyceride level.]. The results revealed that the range and mean of these tests were as follow glucose; [(5.65-98.21)mg/dl, 53.14], cholesterol; [(36.01-252.9)mg/dl, 127.94], triglyceride; [(1.39-134.27)mg/dl, 28.71].
