[Introduction of an enzyme method for determining pyrophosphate in urine--a comparative study between patients with calculi and normal probands].
Interest aroused towards pyrophosphate as a possible inhibitor in calcium oxalate and phosphate lithiasis. A procedure for the quantitative determination of pyrophosphate in urine suitable for use in clinical laboratories is described. The reproducibility of the method was assessed by within-run and between-run reproducibility studies and the accuracy of the method was obtained by determining the amount of pyrophosphate recovered in urine samples. The present study compares the pyrophosphate excretion and concentration between a control group and a calcium oxalate stone former group.
