Abstract
An enzymatic procedure has been applied to the assay of formiminoglutamic acid in the urine of adults and children with a variety of disease states. Urinary formiminoglutamic acid was frequently detected in small quantities, and was markedly increased in children treated with the folic acid antagonist, amethopterin.Keywords
