LDL: Low-density lipoproteins with density less than 1.063 g/ ml. HDL: High-density lipoproteins. HDL: A component of the LDL, designated as S1 3-0. Coin ponents of the fraction with densities less than 1.125 g/mnl are HDL@: [(S1 4-0) the main component, S1 12-4 and 20-12 are the less dense components in this fractiomz]: HDL: High-density lipoproteins wit/i density less thami 1.21 g/mnl.
