title: [Quantitative determination of lipoprotein by agarose gel electrophoresis and enzymatic staining of cholesterol and triglyceride: effects of age and gender].
abstract: 290 normal duplicate samples (152 males and 138 females), were subjected to lipoprotein analysis by agarose gel electrophoresis to yield HDL, VLDL and LDL fractions which were respectively stained with Cholesterol and Triglyceride reagents. HDL-Cholesterol were significantly higher in female than male, and VLDL-TG were significantly higher in male than female. Assay C.V.'s varied from 0.96 to 5.75 for cholesterol fractions and 2.00 to 4.34 for triglyceride fractions. Comparison of electrophoretic HDL-Cholesterol and LDL-Cholesterol concentrations with the results of a direct method (HDL-EX and LDL-EX, Denka Seiken) gave correlation coefficients of 0.967 and 0.952 respectively. This method is simple, rapid and can provide the simultaneous assessment of the cholesterol and triglyceride component in each Lipoprotein fraction. Additionally, the method is useful for evaluating lipoprotein assays.
