    Abstract:
    The serum of obese children and adolescents was analyzed for cholesteryl esters. The test substances were first separated from the sample matrix by solvent extraction and thin-layer chromatography and then resolved in a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic system involving a Separon SGX C18 column and a mobile phase of 2-propanol-acetonitrile (40:60, v/v), with ultraviolet detection at 206 nm. Cholesterol and 10-cholesteryl esters could be separated and determined within ca. 25 min at a flow-rate of 1 ml/min. The method was applied to a study of the effect of external conditions (physical stress, diet) on the content of cholesteryl esters in a test group of obese boys and girls aged from 13 to 16 years. The analyses have demonstrated that the above conditions do not affect the concentrations of the individual cholesteryl esters, although the total cholesterol concentration decreased significantly after spa treatment.
