Lipoprotein pre-staining: comparison of nitroblue tetrazolium and Sudan Black B.
Nitroblue tetrazolium and Sudan Black B have been compared as pre-staining agents for human serum lipoproteins, using acrylamide gel gradients. Results from Nitroblue tetrazolium staining should be used with caution for low and very low density lipoproteins, and further work appears necessary on the reaction with alpha-lipoproteins.
