-
Immunoassay reagents intended to perform qualitative and/or quantitative analyses on a body fluid sample (typically serum) to determine apolipoprotein E, a protein of very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs), intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDLs), and chylomicrons. Apolipoprotein E is a glycoprotein found in at least four isoforms, named E-I to E-IV, differing from one another by one charge only. Levels of apolipoproteins in plasma are associated with risk of atherosclerosis and coronary artery diseases.
