The binding of urate to plasma proteins determined by four different techniques.
Venous occlusion in healthy individuals showed no binding of urate under conditions when the expected increased levels of known bound species was demonstrated. Ultrafiltration of serum from 10 healthy controls and five gouty individuals also showed the absence of binding in all cases, as did electrophoretic and chromatographic studies.
