Lipoprotein Analysis by Carolyn A Converse

Lipoprotein Analysis by Carolyn A Converse

Lipoproteins play an important role in maintaining the normal distribution of lipids in the body and in the transport of lipophilic substances. They are also implicated, however, in some of the major diseases of the Western world including heart disease and stroke and consequently there has been a dramatic proliferation of research in this area. The focus of this volume is on the methodology of lipoprotein research. It contains a selection of chapters which provide detailed protocols for preparing and separating different lipoproteins, followed by methods for studying their metabolism, presence in different tissues, and interactions with receptors. Lipoprotein Analysis: A Practical Approach is an essential manual for all biomedical scientists studying these compounds including those interested in their role in diseases of the circulatory system.

'The editors of The Practical Approach Series, DRickwood and B.D. Hames, have done an excellent job in selecting the topics and authors for their series. The chapters in this book are well written by authorities in their respective fields. The book is recommended as a reference to all bio- and protein analytical chemists.' Journal of Liquid Chromatography, 16(14) (1993)
'The book is most valuable in that it has provided a concise and informative collection of important lipid analysis in a compact volume at a price enabling one to purchase a personal copy.' B.M. Slavin, Alcohol & Alcoholism, Vol. 28, No. 3, 1993
