Investigation of reference values of components of cerebrospinal fluid

Investigation of reference values of components of cerebrospinal fluid

K Breebaart et al. J Clin Chem Clin Biochem. 1978 Oct.

Abstract

In order to obtain reference values, random samples of CSF from 70 women and 69 men were analyzed for various components, including total protein and protein fractions. Using statistical methods, data were also collected for sex differences and the influence of age. Small variations in the values of total protein, albumin and gamma-globulin between males and females were found, and slightly higher values for the gamma-globulin were found with increasing age.
