A rapid procedure for the isolation of plasma cholesterol ester and triglyceride fractions with aminopropyl-silica columns, followed by analysis of their fatty acid compositions by capillary gas chromatography with flame ionization detection, is described. Within-series and long-term (six months) series-to-series precision were investigated. The isolation procedure caused minimal cross-over between the two lipid classes. Reference values for 57 apparently healthy Dutch adults were established and compared with data reported from other countries. Feeding of rats with four diets differing in their fatty acid compositions showed the relationship between the composition of the fatty acids in the diet and those esterified to cholesterol in plasma. The method is of potential usefulness to the establishment of the compliance of dietary interventions and basic dietary experiments.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008055 Lipids A generic term for fats and lipoids, the alcohol-ether-soluble constituents of protoplasm, which are insoluble in water. They comprise the fats, fatty oils, essential oils, waxes, phospholipids, glycolipids, sulfolipids, aminolipids, chromolipids (lipochromes), and fatty acids.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D002788 Cholesterol Esters Fatty acid esters of cholesterol which constitute about two-thirds of the cholesterol in the plasma. The accumulation of cholesterol esters in the arterial intima is a characteristic feature of atherosclerosis.

D002849 Chromatography, Gas Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D005227 Fatty Acids Organic, monobasic acids derived from hydrocarbons by the equivalent of oxidation of a methyl group to an alcohol, aldehyde, and then acid. Fatty acids are saturated and unsaturated (FATTY ACIDS, UNSATURATED).
