In this rapid, specific, and sensitive high-performance liquid-chromatographic method of analysis for homogentisic acid in biological fluids, homogentisic acid is separated on a column of Nucleosil CN. This method, which we applied to the diagnosis of three cases of alcaptonuria, represents a suitable analytical tool for the diagnosis of alcaptonuria.
