<p>Disclosed is a reagent for the fractional determination of a small dense LDL, which does not need any pretreatment of a sample, is rapid and simple, and is applicable to an automated analyzer. Also disclosed is a method for t he determination of the quantity of cholesterol contained in a small dense l ow-density lipoprotein in a sample, which comprises: a first step for scaven ging a lipoprotein other than the small dense low-density lipoprotein in the sample in the presence of cholesterol esterase and a surfactant capable of acting on a lipoprotein other than the small dense low-density lipoprotein a t a concentration of 0.05 to 1.0 g/L; and a second step for determining the quantity of cholesterol in the small dense low-density lipoprotein remaining in the first step.</p> |
