Measurement of the apoproteins of human serum lipoproteins by rocket immunoelectrophoresis

Clin Chim Acta. 1977 Aug 15;79(1):39-45. doi: 10.1016/0009-8981(77)90457-0.

Abstract

A method has been developed for assay of apolipoproteins A, B and C in human serum, using rocket immunoelectrophoresis. The technique is reasonably simple, sensitive and precise. The concentrations of apolipoproteins A, B and C in these classes of serum lipoproteins were measured in 116 healthy subjects. Concentrations of apoproteins within very low and low density lipoproteins increased with age but those of high density lipoproteins showed no consistent age trend.
