摘要
An experience in screening of Fabry disease in population at risk by measuremnt of alpha-galactosidase is described. The enzymatic diagnosis in dried blood spots on filter paper is performed on 51 subjects, 15 hemizygous men, 12 heterozygous women and 24 controls. Only 9 of these 12 hererozygous women (75 %) present a reduced activity of alpha-galactosidase A.
