Abstract
In recent years an ever-increasing interest has been taken in the possible use of serum enzyme investigations in clinical diagnosis, prognosis and therapy control. That clinical abnormalities are accompanied or even induced by biochemical aberrations is accepted. That the serum enzyme pattern may show consequent abnormality before the signs and symptoms familiar to the physician appear, has been also demonstrated in several disease states, such as caeruloplasmin in Wilson's disease (Scheinberg and Gitlin, 1952) and the transaminases in infective hepatitis (Wroblewski, 1957).Keywords
