If someone has hyperlipidemia, how soon after a blood draw can you see the lipids in their blood?

Q. I'm doing a case study on a patient with hyperlipidemia, among other things, and I found a photo of a vial of blood showing the lipids sitting at the top of the vial. It states that this photo was taken 4 hrs after the blood was drawn & I'm wondering if it has to sit for that long to be visible?

A. It is correct as soon as the blood starts to separate and settle or clot and separate, which begins immediately in around a half an hour you have pretty good separation, but we don't spin the blood down for 30 minutes (not when you need to get a result out in an hour)-5-10 minutes is more like it.
