[Change in nucleic acid metabolism in patients with acute purulent processes]

In 127 patients with purulent-inflammatory processes of different location, the DNA concentration in the blood serum increased at the period of pronounced local manifestations of an inflammatory process and intoxication of an organism, in elimination of a focus of inflammation--decreased sharply. RNA concentration in the blood serum increased after the operation in intensive development of granulation tissue. The level of inorganic phosphorus decreased. Concentration of the uric acid changed inconsiderably. This evidenced in favour of intensity of the regulatory mechanisms, which control the nucleic metabolism.
