Direct method for measuring lipoprotein-X in serum.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a fast and easy method for routine quantitation of the abnormal lipoprotein, lipoprotein-X. The procedure is based on densitometry of precipitation areas obtained for it after serum electrophoresis in agar gel followed by precipitation with polyanions. The coefficient of variation was less than 3% in one series. Results were linearly related to concentration in the range 0.063 to 6.3 g/liter.

Direct measurement of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in serum with polyethylene glycol-modified enzymes and sulfated alpha-cyclodextrin.
We have developed an automated method for measuring high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol in serum without prior separation, using polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified enzymes and sulfated alpha-cyclodextrin. When cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase enzymes were modified with PEG, they showed selective catalytic activities towards lipoprotein fractions, with the reactivity increasin...
متن کاملImmunoseparation method for measuring low-density lipoprotein cholesterol directly from serum evaluated.
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol can not be calculated from other lipid measurements when samples are obtained from nonfasting individuals or when triglycerides are > or = 4.0 g/L. We have evaluated a direct LDL cholesterol assay for analyzing 115 fresh serum samples obtained from fasting and nonfasting dyslipidemic patients with triglycerides < or = 35.85 g/L, who were receiving diet ...
متن کاملSimple, direct measurement of lipoprotein X in serum.
This relatively simple method for quantitative estimation of lipoprotein X is based on assay of phospholipids in precipitates of lipoprotein X. We first remove other lipoproteins by precipitation with phosphotungstic acid solution. Lipoprotein X is then precipitated from the supernatant fluid with an alkaline solution of magnesium ion, and phospholipid is determined in this precipitate. Results...
متن کاملDirect enzymic measurement of glycerides in serum and in lipoprotein fractions.
A simple two-step procedure is now available for directly measuring triglycerides in whole serum and in lipoprotein fractions. I tested the performance of the assay, using pooled serum stored frozen, freshly prepared lipoprotein fractions, and pure glyceride standards. A parabolic concentration-response curve ensured linearity well beyond total glycerol concentrations of 10 mmol/L, but gave ris...
متن کاملDirect determination of lipoprotein particle sizes and concentrations by ion mobility analysis.
BACKGROUND Current methods for measuring the concentrations of lipoprotein particles and their distributions in particle subpopulations are not standardized. We describe here and validate a new gas-phase differential electrophoretic macromolecular mobility-based method (ion mobility, or IM) for direct quantification of lipoprotein particles, from small, dense HDL to large, buoyant, very-low-den...
