Plasma clearance of chylomicrons labeled with retinyl palmitate in healthy human subjects.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1984
To estimate hepatic uptake of chylomicron remnants in humans, chylomicrons and intestinal very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were endogenously labeled with retinyl esters, harvested by plasmapheresis, and pulse-injected into the donor 44 hr after ...

Fluorometric determination of total retinyl esters in triglyceride-rich lipoproteins [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1998
AbstractA time-consuming sample preparation and measuring procedure is required for the quantitation of retinyl palmitate by HPLC. We developed a fluorometric method for the determination of total retinyl esters in chylomicrons, chylomicron remnants, and VLDL.
