Dry film for the enzymic determination of total cholesterol in serum.

چکیده
We have prepared a dry film for the enzymic determination of total serum cholesterol. It consists of a transparent support bearing a buffered gelatin layer, and a white reflective spreading layer that contains all of the necessary components for the detection of cholesterol. The method is based on (a) hydrolysis of cholesterol esters to cholesterol by cholesterol ester hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.13), (b) oxidation of cholesterol to cholest-4-en-4-one and hydrogen peroxide by cholesterol oxidase (EC 1.1.3.6), and (c) oxidation of a triarylimidazole leuco dye with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7) to produce a dye with maximum absorption at about 650 nm. For use over a wider range of concentration, the dye density is read at 540 nm. With reflection densitometry and appropriate mathematical transformation, readings and cholesterol concentrations are linearly related to 5500 mg/L. Results correlate well with those by the Abell-Kendall comparison method (slope 0.97, intercept 92.5, correlation coefficient 0.974, Sy.x = 250.7), and the method is precise (CV of 1.2-2.3% for a control fluid and patients' samples) and relatively free of interferences.

Comparison of the Du Pont aca and Dow methods for determination of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
We compared the Du Pont aca (phosphotungstate-enzymic cholesterol) and the Dow (dextran sulfate/Mg2+-enzymic cholesterol) methods for the determination of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and total cholesterol in serum from 113 patients. The aca results for both total cholesterol and HDLC were significantly greater (p less than 0.0001) than the Dow results, the aca method overestimat...

100 patients with beta-thalassemia trait, comprised of 55 men and 45 women, participated in a study to measure serum lipoproteins. The results were compared with the data obtained from 100 control subjects of the same age and sex. A significantly lower level of mean serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, and a much higher level of HDL cholesterol were obtained in beta-thalassemia trai...

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the most important causes of mortality in Iran. Hypercholesterolemia is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Dietary modification such as cereal bran consumption is an approach to reduce this risk factor. The purpose of this present study was to compare the effects of rice bran and wheat bran on serum lipids in hypercholesterolemic w...
