Abstract

Several studies suggest that small dense low-density lipoprotein (sdLDL) may have a higher atherogenic potential compared with larger buoyant low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles ([1–4][1]). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently approved an assay by Denka Seiken measuring
