[The determination of Krebs cycle carboxylic acids in the ejaculate by chromatography]

The authors suggest a highly informative and unsophisticated method of gas liquid chromatography of lactic, pyruvic, oxalic, butyric, malonic, succinic, glutaric, fumaric, oxalacetic, malic, alpha-ketoglutaric, cis-aconitic, tartaric, citric and isocitric acids in the ejaculate of infertile and fertile men and in testicles of experimental animals. The method is recommended for research and clinical studies of the metabolic processes associated with the functioning of the Krebs' cycle acids in the seminal fluid of infertile patients.
