Hemagglutination is a specific and sensitive technique for investigating the purity of lipoproteins and the immunologic relationships between low density lipoprotein fractions. The S(f) 10-400 and S(f) 3-9 lipoprotein fractions, isolated from human serum by dextran sulfate-density gradient centrifugation procedure and repurified by centrifugation appeared to contain only lipoprotein antigens si...
