Description |
High density lipoprotein precipitation reagents |
Background |
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoproteins which, in order of sizes, largest to smallest, are chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL and HDL, which enable lipids like cholesterol and triglycerides to be transported within the water-based bloodstream. In healthy individuals, about thirty percent of blood cholesterol is carried by HDL. |
Form & Buffer |
Kit contains reagents A and B in liquid form |

Assay Information |
The addition of PEG solutions of different concentrations and pH results in the selective precipitation of the different lipoprotein fractions. Reagent A is precipitating only the VLDL and LDL fractions, while Reagent B precipitates along with VLDL and LDL, also the HDL2 subclass. |
