N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity in serum during pregnancy.

A spectrophotometric method for the estimation of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase in serum has been devised. Sera from normal adult males and females showed similar levels of activity. The activity in serum rose progressively during pregnancy and fell rapidly after parturition to normal levels. This change resembled closely that which occurs in serum beta-glucuronidase. Placenta showed a moderate and chorion a high level of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase. High N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity was demonstrated histochemically in decidual cells. The functions of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and beta-glucuronidase and factors influencing their activity are discussed.

A note on the determination of serum beta-glucuronidase activity.

A modification of the method of Fishman, Springer, and Brunetti (1948) for determining serum beta-glucuronidase activity is described. Normal values are presented and some of the factors which might influence the serum enzyme determination have been investigated.
