Enzymatic techniques in the direct assay of urinary metabolites in psoriatic patients

Urinary contents of acetic acid, citric acid, D-gluconic acid, L-lactic acid, L-malic acid weree detremined in a series of psoriatic patients by an enzymatic technique directly applied to the urine. The results demonstrate that in the urine of psoriatic patients there is a more or less significant variation in the level of the metabolites.
