Popis: A relatively short, simple procedure is presented to separate serum high-density lipoproteins discretely into the two main classes, those with densities between 1.063 and 1.125 g/ml (HDL2) and those with densities between 1.125 and 1.210 g/ml (HDL3). A 3.5% polyacrylamide gel in 10 cm glass tubes and the use of Tris/glycine buffer, pH 8.4, will accomplish this separation. The components can be identified in several different ways, examples of which are given. This procedure will give rapid and reliable estimations of both HDL2 and HDL3, and can be used to relate their levels and proportional amounts to incidence or risk of atherosclerosis, coronary-artery disease and possibly cancer.
