Computer lipoprotein analysis

Because of the elaborate calculations and data processing required for this kind of mathematical analysis, it has not been feasible to consider potentially useful techniques to accomplish this task manually. However, with the recent availability of high-speed digital computers of large storage capacity, and the development of data-handling techniques, such an extensive lipoprotein analysis becomes not only entirely realistic, but perhaps necessary in order to increase our understanding of the human lipoprotein system.

Any discussion of serum lipids must ultimately lead to a consideration of the serum lipoproteins since it is in the form of lipoproteins that the lipids of the serum circulate. This volume presents two authoritative discussions on the subject of lipoproteins. One chapter discusses the analysis of human serum lipoproteins and emphasizes the possibilities inherent in the application of computer techniques to such analyses. The other chapter presents a thorough discussion of lipoprotein structure, metabolism, and catabolism. It touches on all aspects of lipoprotein metabolism.
