[Rate of transudation of the mucous membranes by testing the enzymes of the intermediary metabolism in the secretion of patients with different internal diseases (author's transl)].
In patients with increased levels of GOT, GPT, CPK, LDH, SP and AP in serum, the activities of these enzymes in nasal mucus are determined. Even in cases with extreme increase of activity in serum, the enzyme-activities in nasal mucus are normal. From this we concluded first, that the enzymes in nasal mucus are specific products of the intermediary metabolism of the mucous membranes and secondly, that the rate of transsudation of serum proteins by the nasal mucous membrane therefore is very low in physiological state.
