In the course of a follow-up of 87 subjects with known hyperlipoproteinemia a new, simplified method was tested for quantification of the individual lipoprotein fractions capable of being performed by every larger laboratory, in contrast to the expensive ultracentrifugation.

This enabled the most important aspects of the lipid metabolic situation of a patient to be recognized immediately.
