Lipoprotein characterization in Quaker parrots (Myiopsitta monachus) using gel-permeation high-performance liquid chromatography.

GP-HPLC allowed unprecedented characterization of plasma lipoproteins in Quaker parrots. Characterizing psittacine lipoprotein is useful for validation and interpretation of routine clinical tests as well as for use in epidemiologic and experimental research on psittacine lipid accumulation disorders.
