Abstract
A method of a pretreatment of a sample for quantitating cholesterol characterized by, before measuring cholesterol contained in specific lipoproteins, treating the sample 5 containing lipoproteins with an enzyme, the substrate of which is free cholesterol, optionally together with a reaction accelerator; a method for quantitating cholesterol in specific lipoproteins by using the above method; and a kit for quantitating cholesterol in specific lipoproteins to be used in 10 the above quantification method. By using this quantification method, cholesterol in a specific fraction can be conveniently, accurately and efficiently quantitated fundamentally without resort to polyanion, etc. Thus, this method is appropriately usable in various automatic analyzers.

Technical Field 15 This invention relates to a pretreatment method for accurately and efficiently discriminating and quantitating cholesterol, which exists in the specific lipoprotein fraction, by simple procedures while using a small amount of a sample, and also to a method for measuring cholesterol in the specific 20 lipoprotein fraction by using the pretreatment method. Background Art Lipids such as cholesterol are complexed with apoproteins 25 in blood to form lipoproteins. Depending on differences in physical properties, lipoproteins are classified into chylomicron, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), and so on. Among these lipoproteins, LDL is known to be one of causative 30 substances which induce arteriosclerosis, while HDL is known to show anti-arteriosclerotic activity. Epidemiologically, the level of cholesterol in LDL is known to exhibit a positive correlation with the frequency of in4 .9f 01 66.ncxqn t&6w an Inverse cdrrelatoi ith the f requency ofncnsls.f arteriosclerotic disease.
