Background: Population studies have shown an inverse association between
high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and risk of coronary heart disease
(CHD). HDL has different functions, including the ability to protect biological
molecules from oxidation. Our aim was to evaluate the performance of two
fluorescence-based assays in ... read moreassessing the antioxidative capacity of
HDL.
