Alkaline and acid phosphatase activity was measured in the ejaculate of normo-, oligo-, and azoospermic males. Due to the considerable scattering no correlation was found between sperm density and enzyme activity. Phosphatase activities were very similar in the fertile and infertile groups. On the basis of this observation phosphatase activity measurements are not recommended in clinical practice.
The Deoxycytidyl-Deaminase activity in the plasma of 75 woman with a normal or complicated pregnancy was estimated. The control group consisted of 20 healthy, non-pregnant woman. Only in the cases of pregnancies with trisymptomic toxaemia and chronic kidney diseases high enzyme activities were estimated. There are no timedependent changes in the enzym activity during a normal pregnancy. The estimation of the enzyme activity of DCMP-Deaminase in the plasma seems to be a valuable method for the registration of pregnant woman with classical EPH-Gestosis and chronic kidney diseases.
