Abstract:
A procedure for measuring lactate, ammonium, and urea in a single 2 ml sample of aqueous wash-off from the palm of a man is described. In normal subjects the level of lactate excretion was 1.56 mmole/cm2 skin, that of ammonium 0.08 mmole, and of urea 0.1 mmole. This noninvasive method may be used in pediatrics, in examinations of athletes, etc.
