in the present study a new economic and rapid bacterial micro-assay for simultaneous detection and quantitative measurement of serum galactose was developed. analysis of the standard curve showed a linearity range for galactose from 2 mg/dl to 180 mg/dl with a regression equation of y = 0.013x ? 0.083; r² = 0.962. the advantage of the method is its ability to measure serum galactose quantitativ...
