title: Screening tests for the enzymatic diagnosis in liver diseases and myocardial infarction.
abstract: To perform the ever increasing number of analyses with a minimum equipment the tendency all over the world is now to replace the classical tests with screening tests. The laboratory of enzymology of the Institute of Internal Medicine has achieved screening tests for the estimation of alkaline phosphatase, of total lactatedehydrogenase and of its fraction I, whose results are in agreement with the reference methods of Bessy-Lowry-Brock and of Lac-Dehystrate-Goedecke in cases of acute and chronic liver diseases, neoplasms, bone diseases (Paget's disease) and myocardial infarction.
