>>A friend of mine, a vascular surgeon is requesting the assay of anti-ceroid 
antibodies in

lipofuchsin 
>>found in various human tissues such as neural tissue in children diseases 
of 
>>sphingolipidosis-type.
>>Antibodies to human oxidized low density lipoprotein have been described in 
1990 
>>(Arch Pathol Lab Med 1990, 114, 383-387)
>>Does anyone has experience of such an assay? Are antigens available.
