Comparison of automated and manual methods of estimation of methylmalonic acid.

چکیده
An automated method for estimation of methylmalonic acid in urine is described that compares well with results obtained by a manual method. The temperature at which color is developed can be set anywhere between ambient and 90°C without loss of linearity over a certain range of concentrations. The higher temperatures have greater sensitivity but a smaller linear range than do lower incubation-temperatures.
