ABSTRACT:
A method for screening a patient for mucopolysaccharidoses is provided in which sample urine absorbed onto a porous sheet and dried is extracted with water. 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue dye reagent in buffer is added to the aqueous extract to produce a test solution which is assessed spectrophotometrically for color change indicative of mucopolysaccharidoses. The invention is particularly applicable to rapid and reliable mass screening and diagnosis of newborn infants.
