Kinetics of in vitro LDL peroxidation assessed by TBARS formation. An aliquot of 100 μl plasma from three different patients (A, B, C) was assayed. All sample precipitates were redissolved in 0.4 ml of solubilizing solution, incubated with Cu²⁺/H₂O₂ for different periods of time, and 100 μl of oxidized LDL was employed for TBARS assay. Results are the average of duplicate determinations.
