Abstract
The relationship between serum lipoprotein levels and the grades of ma rbling in muscle tissue was analyzed by gel filtration of lipoprotein fraction obtained from sera of 80 Japanese black beef cattle in the fi nal stage of fattening. It was found that the increase in the Beef Mar bling Standard number was positively correlated with the concentration of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=0.79) and negatively with t hat of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=-0.47).
