ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a fast and simple method for fractional measurement of small particle low density lipoprotein (LDL). The method for quantifying small particle LDL in a test sample entails a first step of separating the small particle LDL from other low density lipoproteins, and a second step of measuring cholesterol, triglycerides or proteins in the separated small particle LDL.
