title: Human renal neuraminidase.
abstract: An assay technique for determination of renal neuraminidase (sialidase) activity is described. Consistent and reproducible results were obtained in studies of rat renal tissue. Neuraminidase activity was detected in all human renal specimens studied; however the degree of activity was not related to the presence of renal calculi or infection.
