Diagnostic Value of Muramidase

Abstract
Serum and urinary muramidase assays are of greatest value in diagnosing myelomonocytic and chronic myelocytic leukemia and in evaluating renal tubular damage. Like all known enzymes, muramidase is a protein. The assay of this enzyme is based on its ability to hydrolyze the cell wall of Micrococcus lysodeikticus, the substrate in most turbidimetric assay methods and in the agar-plate method of Osserman.
