A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of urinary glyoxylic acid is proposed. The system is based on the precolumn derivatization of alpha-keto acids by means of phenylhydrazine, separation of the phenylhydrazone formed by HPLC and spectrophotometric detection at 324 nm. The method is precise and allows the determination of 0.5 mumol/l glyoxylate. The poor stability of glyoxylate under all conventional preservation conditions requires the analysis to be carried out as soon as possible after urine collection. Results of determinations on urine samples from healthy controls and from patients with idiopathic calcium stone disease and type I primary hyperoxaluria are reported.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
