title: Sialic acid in cervical carcinoma patients.
abstract: Qualitative and quantitative determination of sialic acid has been made in normal and cancer cervix tissue. Both types of cervix tissue contain only one type of sialic i.e. N-acetylneuraminic acid. Serum of normal and cancer cervix bearing patients have also only N-acetylneuraminic acid. Regarding quantitative analysis the normal cervix has a value seven times greater than the cancer cervix tissue.
