title: Chromatographic analysis of blood lipids. Comparison between gas chromatography and thin-layer chromatography with flame ionization detection.
abstract: Intact human blood plasma lipids of different composition were analyzed by gas chromatography and thin-layer chromatography with flame ionization detection. The reproducibility of the results obtained by gas and thin-layer chromatography was compared. The main advantages and disadvantages of both methods for lipid analysis are discussed. Generally, the variability of the results measured by thin-layer chromatography in series and from day to day was greater than that obtained by gas chromatography.
