title: Practical quantitative assay for 5- fluorocytosine in serum and other body fluids.
abstract: A method is described for assaying 5-fluorocytosine levels in serum or other body fluids. It is simpler and less expensive than the standard cylinder plate assay and is therefore more practical for routine diagnostic laboratory testing.
