LABORATORY METHODS FOR LIPOPOROTEINS
Ultracentrifugation
Electrophoresis
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Based on Density and Shape
Sample is adjusted with Sodium Bromide and is centrifuged at high speed for 24 HOURS
Ultracentrifugation
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Reference method for Lipoproteins
Ultracentrifugation
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Order from MOST TO LEAST DENSE (ULTRACENTRIFUGATION)
- HDL (bottom)
- LDL
- VLDL
- Chylomicrons (Top;creamy layer)
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Separation based on size and charge
Electrophoresis
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Stains for Electrophoresis for Lipoprotein
Oil Red O
Sudan Black B
Sudan III
Sudan IV
Fat Red B
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Arrangement from fastest/most anodic (Electrophoresis)
HDL > LDL > VLDL > CM
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Test primarily used for Chylomicrons; Involves standing aliquot of plasma in Refrigerator for 4 deg celsius overnight
Standing Plasma Test
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Standing Plasma Test: The aliquot remains turbid even after standing overnight
Excess BVLDL
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Standing Plasma Test:
Presence of Chylomicrons at a Fasting Plasma
Abnormal
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Polyanion Precipitation (3-step Precipitation Method)
Homogenous Assay
These test are used for the measurement of ?
HDL Measurement
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
In Polyanion Precipitation (3-step Precipitation Method):
Agents used to precipitate Lipoprotein with Apo B
Dextran Sulfate
Heparin Sulfate
Phosphotungstate
Divalent cation:
Magnesium
Calcium
Manganese
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
In Polyanion Precipitation (3-step Precipitation Method):
Reagents used
Heparin sulfate - Manganese Chloride
Dextran Sulfate - Magnesium Chloride
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
In Polyanion Precipitation (3-step Precipitation Method):
HDL supernatant is measured using (2)
Cholesterol Oxidase
Cholesterol esterase
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
In Polyanion Precipitation (3-step Precipitation Method):
Can be automated T/F
FALSE
POLYANION CANNOT BE AUTOMATED
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
Used for HDL measurement; uses antibody to bind with Apo B100 (VLDL, LDL)
HDL then is measured ENZYMATICALLY
Principle is used in automated measurement
Homogenous Assay
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
- Friedawald Equation
- Delong Equation
- Beta Quantification
- Homogenous Direct LDL Method
- Gel Chromatography / Affinity Chromatography
- Immunochemical
- Immunoassay or immunonephelometry
LDL Measurement
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
LDL Measurement suitable if TRG is <400
Friedwald Equation
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
LDL = TC - (HDL + VLDL)
VLDL = TRG / 5 (g/dL)
VLDL = TRG / 2.175 (mmol/L)
Friedwald Equation
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
LDL measurement used when TRG is >400 g/dl
Delong Equation
Laboratory Method for Lipoproteins:
LDL = TC - (HDL + VLDL)
VLDL = TRG / 6.5 (g/dL)
VLDL = TRG / 2.825 (mmol/L)
Delong Equation
