Abstract:
:Fast lipoprotein chromatography (FLPC) is a novel method for quantifying lipoproteins. Plasma proteins are separated by fast-flow gel filtration. Lipoproteins are detected by post-column derivatization with an enzymatic cholesterol reagent. FLPC resolves very-low-, low-, and high-density lipoproteins (VLDL, LDL, and HDL, respectively) and completely separates apolipoprotein Al- and apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. CVs for VLDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol are 5.8%, 2.0%, and 1.9%, respectively. We compared FLPC with a combined ultracentrifugation and precipitation method and obtained correlation of r = 0.979, 0.978, and 0.933 for VLDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol, respectively. Triglyceride concentrations up to 9.00 g/L did not interfere with the quantification of lipoproteins by FLPC. We conclude that FLPC is a precise and reliable method for the analysis of plasma lipoproteins that complements conventional techniques.
