Urinary sulfur partition in normal men and in cancer patients.
نویسنده
چکیده
INFORMATION RELATING TO URINARY SULFUR partition of normal men and of cancer patients has been limited. Folin (1), Clark (2), Pine (3), and more recently Freyberg (4), Mendes (5), Du Vigneaud (6), and some other investigators (7, 8) have explored the over-all sulfur economy and urinary excretion in normal adults. Muller (8) has reported the amount of excretion of neutral sulfur in 1 patient with cancer of the liver. Crabtree (9) reported variations of neutral sulfur excretion in urine in mice after treating them with carcinogens. Our experiments deal with the partition of inorganic sulfate, total sulfate, total sulfur, and neutral sulfur in urine of 10 normal men and 27 cancer patients.
