Abstract
Summary
1. Paper electrophoresis provides a simple reproducible method for the study of serum (plasma) lipoproteins. Characteristic species lipoprotein patterns were demonstrated in normal man, monkey, dog and rabbit. 2. This method combined with chemical determinations of serum (plasma) lipids permits detailed investigations of normal and abnormal lipid metabolic states. 3. Elevation of serum (plasma) lipid fractions induced in these species by various experimental procedures were accompanied by a lowering of α lipoprotein and varying degrees of elevation of the β + O fraction.
