Lipoproteins of serum

Lipoproteins. The lipid moiety of lipoproteins is quite variable both qualitatively and quantitatively. The a-lipoprotein of serum contains glyceride, phosphatide and cholesterol to about 30 -40% of the total complex. The -lipoprotein of serum contains some glyceride but the phosphatide and cholesterol account for nearly 75% of the total.
