lipid analysis Flashcards
1
Q
non-destructible/reversible lipid analysis
A
iodine vapour; pretty unspecific dichlorofluorescin–>most nonspecific
2
Q
destructive/irr
A
ninhydrin–>detects for primary amine-containing lipids (PE and PS); phosphoric acid–>unspec, chars any organic material–>most specific
3
Q
gas chromatography of lipids requires adding a methyl ester
A
ya
4
Q
can also measure lipids in circulation via HPLC
A
similar to size exclusion chromatography–>important in generating a lipid profile
