We study the susceptibilities of quark number, isospin number and electric charge in numerical simulations of lattice QCD at high temperature and density. We discuss the equation of state for 2 flavor QCD at non-zero temperature and density. Derivatives of $\ln Z$ with respect to quark chemical potential $(\mu_q)$ are calculated up to sixth order. From this Taylor series, the susceptibilities are estimated as functions of temperature and $\mu_q$. Moreover, we comment on the hadron resonance gas model, which explains well our simulation results below $T_c$.
