HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) values measured by precipitation (sodium phosphotungstateMgCl2) and direct methods were compared with those obtained by HPLC with a new column (TSKgel Lipopropak) and an eluent (TSKeluent LP-1). The HDL-C values determined by the precipitation method were significantly (P <0.001) lower than those by the HPLC method, whereas the HDL-C values by the direct method were slightly but significantly higher (P <0.02) than those by the HPLC method. A quantitative HPLC analysis of the cholesterol concentration in HDL and non-HDL fractions in the supernatant of serum separated by precipitation reagents with different MgCl2 concentrations ranging from 7.3 to 44 mmol/L revealed that reagents with >22 mmol/L MgCl2 precipitated part of HDL as well as non-HDL lipoproteins. The HPLC method providing quantitative and qualitative information with high precision was regarded as being a reliable approach for HDL-C assay. The HPLC can be also used to evaluate alternative methods for cholesterol assay.
