Characterization of in vitro modified human high-density lipoprotein particles and phospholipids by capillary zone electrophoresis and LC ESI-MS.

A simple capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method was used to characterize native, in vitro oxidized and glycated human high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Both native and in vitro oxidized HDL capillary electrophoresis (CE) profiles showed a major peak, but the oxidized HDL particles had higher effective mobilities. The in vitro glycated HDL particles showed a major peak and one or two minor peaks.

In vitro oxidized and glycated human low-density lipoprotein particles characterized by capillary zone electrophoresis.

A simple capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method was used to determine native, in vitro Cu(2+) and glucose modified low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles for four healthy subjects. The LDL electropherograms are highly reproducible with good precisions of effective mobility and peak area. The native LDL capillary electrophoresis (CE) profile shows a major peak with lower mobility and two minor peaks with higher mobilities.

Separation and determination of in vitro oxidized phospholipids by capillary zone electrophoresis.

A simple capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method was used to determine in vitro oxidized phosphatidyl choline (ox-PC). To optimize the capillary electrophoresis (CE) conditions, organic buffer additives, buffer ionic strength, buffer pH, and applied voltage were examined. The optimal CE separation buffer chosen was an aqueous-organic solvent system containing 10% sodium phosphate buffer (5 mM, pH 7.
