title: Determination of HDL-cholesterol. Comparison between two methods.
abstract: We have evaluated a new method for HDL Cholesterol assay, using heparin-CaCl2-NaCl2. This method is in good correlation with PTA-MgCl2 technique. Our results are precise and accurate. HDL Cholesterol mean values: Normolipemic subjects, Cholesterol 190 +/- 13 mg% - Triglycerides 95 +/- 25 mg% - HDL-C 40.99 +/- 8.76 mg%; Ipertrigliceridemic subjects, Cholesterol 235 +/- 20 mg% - Triglcerides 284 +/- 30 mg% - HDL-C 30 +/- 4.7 mg%.
