The application of tetrazolium bioautography to the identification of folic acid derivatives

R J Leeming et al. J Clin Pathol. 1970 Jul.

Abstract

Tetrazolium bioautography has been applied to the identification of folates in solutions of known concentration, and satisfactory resolution has been obtained between pteroyl-L-monoglutamic acid, calcium leucovorin, and N-5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid. The technique is suitable for the identification of folates in biological solutions, and is more specific than differential microbiological assay.
