title: The occurrence and identification of o-hydroxyhippuric acid (salicyluric acid) in the urine of sick children.
abstract: O-Hydroxyhippuric acid has been identified in the urine of a number of sick children who were not receiving salicylate-containing drugs. Characterisation was effected by thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatography and by gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. An association between gastro-intestinal dysfunction and the excretion of o-hydroxyhippuric acid was observed in approximately 50% of the patients who excreted this substance.
