Human ldl

Manufactured by Biomedical Technologies

Human LDL is a laboratory product that measures the concentration of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in human blood samples. LDL is a type of cholesterol that is often referred to as 'bad' cholesterol due to its potential to contribute to the buildup of plaque in the arteries.

Squalestatin and oleic acid were obtained from Sigma (St. Louis, MO). Human LDL (density 1.019–1.063 g/mL) was purchased from Biomedical Technologies Inc. (Stoughton, MA). Lipoprotein-deficient serum (LPDS) was prepared by ultracentrifugation of FBS after its density was increased to 1.215 g/mL with potassium bromide [4 (link)]. The cholesterol concentration in the LPDS was estimated to be under the minimum level detectable by a commercial detection kit (Cholesterol E-test Wako, Wako Pure Chemical Industries).

Serum from all patients was screened for the presence of anti-MDA-LDL and MAA-LDL IgG antibodies. Human LDL (Biomedical Technologies, Inc, Ward Hill, MA) was modified with MDA as previously described [33] (link). Briefly, Human LDL was reacted with 0.2 M MDA for 3 hours at 37 degrees. Human LDL was MAA modified by reacting 2 mM MDA with 1 mM acetaldehyde as previously described [25] (link). ELISA plates were coated with MDA-LDL, MAA-LDL, and LDL alone and serum tested for reactivity as describe above.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
