Abstract

This research was undertaken to explore the possibility that urine from persons having a pathological condition might contain substances which break down protein. The two objectives of this author were:

1. To devise a means of concentrating the proteolytic activity of urine, and

2. To determine whether urine from tubercular patients has an abnormal proteolytic effect.
