Results of our conclusive study on urinary enzyme stability during sample storage are reported. We measured alanine aminopeptidase (AAP) and N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) in morning urines from 9 healthy normal subjects immediately after collection and throughout a 1-year storage at -70 and -20 degrees C. AAP proved to be quite stable at -70 degrees C (99.2% of the basal value at the end of the year). NAG is partially preserved (84.1% of the basal value) at -70 degrees C, but significantly decreased (50.4%) at -20 degrees C.

Abstract
Results of our conclusive study on urinary enzyme stability during sample storage are reported. We measured alanine aminopeptidase (AAP) and N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) in morning urines from 9 healthy normal subjects immediately after collection and throughout a 1-year storage at -70 and -20 degrees C. AAP proved to be quite stable at -70 degrees C (99.2% of the basal value at the end of the year). NAG is partially preserved (84.1% of the basal value) at -70 degrees C, but significantly decreased (50.4%) at -20 degrees C.File in questo prodotto:
