A simple and rapid method for determining blood ammonia levels.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Blood ammonia levels in patients with various liver diseases were determined quantitatively by a simple and rapid method using the Amitest Meter System. The results were compared to those obtained by an enzymatic method and were well correlated. This simple Amitest is also useful in animal experiments, particularly when there is a need to determine blood ammonia levels serially. This paper test was evaluated as being accurate and reliable for clinical and experimental use.

Preservation of Blood Ammonia by Rapid Freezing--a Method for Delayed Determinations.
A method is described for preservation of blood for delayed determinations of ammonia by rapid freezing of the samples in a dry ice and acetone solution followed by storage of the specimens in the frozen state. The method was evaluated by first establishing the reproducibility of the chemical method used for blood ammonia analysis in 714 consecutive samples of dog blood which were analyzed in d...
