title: Concentration of triglyceride and cholesterol in lipoprotein fractions in maternal and cord blood samples.
abstract: Blood samples from 100 normal mothers at delivery and from umbilical cord blood were analysed for total cholesterol, triglyceride and cholesterol in high density lipoprotein. Cholesterol in very low density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein were calculated by formula. Electrophoresis in agarose gel was performed on serum. There was no significant difference in the values in cord blood of girls and boys. There was no significant correlation between maternal and cord blood values. Pre-beta band was present in all cord blood samples. The electrophoretic mobility of pre-beta in cord blood is the same as that in adult blood. Faster mobility of alpha is observed in 26% of the cord blood samples.
