Use of 4-methylumbelliferyl-6-sulpho-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta- D-glucopyranoside for prenatal diagnosis of Tay-Sachs disease using chorionic villi.

E E Grebner1, D A Wenger.   

Abstract

Prenatal diagnosis of Tay-Sachs disease was performed using the sulphated substrate 4-methylumbelliferyl-6-sulpho-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranoside to detect hexosaminidase A in chorionic villi. The presence or absence of hexosaminidase A in villi was detected by both a quantitative enzyme assay, and by a rapid, novel procedure which permitted visual discrimination between normal and affected villi.
