title: Improved rapid assay of uric acid in serum by liquid chromatography.
abstract: This improved method for rapid determination of uric acid in serum is based on high-performance liquid-gel-permeation chromatography, with hydrophilic and highly porous vinyl alcohol copolymer as packing material. It has the following advantages: no need for sample deproteinization or use of a precolumn, more than 500 serum samples can be analyzed without having to regenerate or recondition the analytical apparatus, and the analysis for uric acid is a one-step procedure. Correlation coefficients between this method and other methods are very good (r = 0.998, 0.999).
