Zinc concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid of normal adults and patients with neurological diseases

Zinc concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid of normal adults and patients with neurological diseases

R Palm et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1982 Aug.

Abstract

Zinc concentrations in CSF were determined with flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry in patients assumed to have a normal CSF. No sex difference was found. There was a correlation between zinc, protein and albumin concentrations in CSF. In patients with increased protein levels in CSF or subarachnoid haemorrhage increased zinc concentrations were found.
