Method for quantifying subfraction of cholesterol (−C) in high-density lipoprotein (HDL)
View Patent ↗Provided is a method for separately or simultaneously quantifying whole HDL-C and cholesterol in HDL subfractions: ApoE-Containing HDL-C and ApoE-deficient HDL-C. A method for enzymatically and separately quantifying cholesterol in the ApoE-deficient HDL comprising: adding a surfactant composed of a polyoxyethylene benzyl phenyl ether derivative to a test sample in a final concentration of 0.05 to 0.10%, reacting the test sample with cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase, and quantifying hydrogen peroxide generated. A method for enzymatically and separately quantifying cholesterol in ApoE-Containing HDL comprising: adding a surfactant composed of a polyoxyethylene benzyl phenyl ether derivative so as to obtain a final concentration of 0.15 to 0.75%, reacting the test sample with cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase, and quantifying hydrogen peroxide generated.
1. A method for quantifying cholesterol in ApoE-Containing HDL, comprising:
(i) adding surfactant polyoxyethylene benzyl phenyl ether to a test sample in a final concentration of 0.05 to 0.10 wt %,
reacting the test sample with cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase, and
removing cholesterol in HDL except the ApoE-Containing HDL; and
(ii) subsequently adding the same surfactant used in step (i) so as to obtain a final concentration of 0.20 to 0.75 wt %, and
reacting the test sample with cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase, and
quantifying hydrogen peroxide generated to quantify cholesterol in the ApoE-Containing HDL.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein total HDL-cholesterol is quantified based on (i) the quantification value of cholesterol in the ApoE-deficient HDL obtained by adding surfactant polyoxyethylene benzyl phenyl ether to the test sample in a final concentration of 0.05 to 0.10 wt %, reacting the test sample with cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase, and quantifying hydrogen peroxide generated; and (ii) a quantification value of cholesterol in the ApoE-Containing HDL obtained by adding the same surfactant as step (i) to the test sample so as to obtain a final concentration of 0.20 to 0.75 wt %, reacting the test sample with cholesterol esterase and cholesterol oxidase, and quantifying hydrogen peroxide generated.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein cholesterol in the ApoE-deficient HDL, cholesterol in ApoE-Containing HDL, and total HDL-cholesterol are simultaneously quantified by a general automatic analyzer using a single sample.
