Method of Measuring Cholesterol in Remnant-Like Lipoproteins

摘要

There are provided a method and reagent for measuring cholesterol in remnant-like lipoprotein in a sample with high sensitivity by more simple operation. The method for measuring cholesterol in remnant-like lipoprotein uses a cholesterol esterase, in which the activity ratio of a lipoprotein lipase to a cholesterol esterase (lipoprotein lipase activity/cholesterol esterase activity) is from 12 to 7000 in a method for measuring cholesterol in the lipoprotein by measuring hydrogen peroxide or a reduced coenzyme obtained by allowing the cholesterol esterase and a cholesterol oxidase or a cholesterol dehydrogenase to act on a test sample containing a lipoprotein.
