A continuous fluorescence assay was adapted to the measurement of the phospholipase reaction of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT). The fluorescent phospholipid I-acyl-2-(N-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-I .3-diazole)aminocaproyl phosphatidylcholine (C,-NBD-PC) in micelle form reacted with LCAT to yiel

The present study compared three cholesterol oxidase sources (Nocardia, Sreptomyces, and Pseudornonas sps.) for serum cholesterol assay. We found cholesterol oxidase isolated from Streptomyces was superior than those isolated from Nocardia and Pseudomonas sps. Performances of the reagent contained
We introduce a method for monitoring non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI), a labile and potentially toxic form of serum iron associated with imbalanced iron metabolism. The assay employs fluorescein-labeled apotransferrin (Fl-aTf), which undergoes fluorescence quenching upon binding iron. It has the ad
The clinical efficacy and accuracy of the homogeneous assay method for the serum high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol determination were evaluated. The principle is as follows: low density lipoproteins (LDL) and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were coated by polymers and polyanion to be b
