Concentration Polarization of High-Density Lipoprotein and Its Relation with Shear Stress in an In Vitro Model

The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration polarization of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) at the surface of the carotid artery under conditions of steady flow and to establish its relationship with shear stress using an in vitro vascular simulation model of carotid bifurcation. She...
