Abstract

The present invention provides a process for the determination of the .beta.-lipoprotein fraction (LDL) in body fluids, especially in serum or plasma, wherein the LDL fraction is selectively precipitated from the sample by the addition of a polyvinyl sulphate with monovalent cations and then determined. The present invention also provides a reagent for the determination of the .beta.-lipoprotein fraction (LDL) in body fluids, especially in serum or plasma, wherein it contains polyvinyl sulphate.
