Anti-hypochlorite–low density lipoprotein (LDL) antibodies do not cross-react with malondialdehyde (MDA)–LDL. While preabsorption with MDA–LDL clearly diminishes the reactivity in an MDA–LDL enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (grey bars), this is not the case for the reactivity in a hypochlorite–LDL ELISA (black bars). OD values for MDA– and hypochlorite–LDL, obtained after absorption on MDA–LDL, were expressed as the percentage of the OD values for MDA– and hypochlorite–LDL, respectively, obtained after absorption on native LDL.
