A method is presented for the two-dimensional thin-layer chromatographic screening of purines, pyrimidines and their nucleosides in the urine. Prior to chromatography, isolation of these substances from the urine is performed by anion-exchange column chromatography. Purines and pyramidines are quantitatively eluted with formic acid 0.01 M and 4 M respectively. The results of recovery and stability experiments are given. Normal excretory patterns are presented. Also results in patients with various diseases are shown: ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, adenosine deaminase deficiency, purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiency, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency, xanthine oxidase deficiency and hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency. Finally the pattern of a patient on treatment with allopurinol is given.
