title: Pigment interferes with cholesterol analysis in erythrocyte lipid extracts: a procedure for removal.
abstract: Removal of pigments from erythrocyte lipid extracts was achieved simply by adding isopropyl alcohol (2 ml) and silica gel H (0.05 g) to an aliquot of dried extract. This procedure is superior to other available methods because of its simplicity and high efficiency.
