Determination of asialotransferrin in the cerebrospinal fluid with the HPLC method.

Except for the need to obtain approximately 1.5 mL of cerebrospinal fluid and a tenfold concentrating of the sample, there is no need to conduct any modifications of the preparation procedure for the analytic sample and chromatographic separation normally used for serum samples. The HPLC method of asialotransferrin determination in CSF provides clinically useful results.
