Title: THE ELIMINATION OF URIC ACID IN MAN. STUDIED BY MEANS OF C$sup 14$-LABELED URIC ACID

Journal Article · · Scand. J. Clin. & Lab. Invest.
OSTI ID:4090624

Studies were made of the total amount of uric acid in the human body and the turnover rate. Uric acid labeled with C/sup 14/ was used as a tracer. A comparison of the amount of uric acid turned over per day with the amount excreted in the urine made it clear that a considerable part of uric acid ie eliminated by some other route than through the kidney. Results are reported from studies on the extrarenal excretion of uric acid. (C.H.)
