Leucocyte values of alpha-L-iduronidase activity in mucopolysaccharidosis I.

RESUMO
Assay of alpha-L-iduronidase in peripheral leucocytes is a rapid and simple diagnostic aid in mucopolysaccharidosis I. The mean value for heterozygotes is one-half the value of normal controls, but overlap between the two groups occurs. Use of this assay may be helpful in genetic counselling of selected couples.
