Abstract A procedure for the determination of l-tyrosine in human urine is described. Tyrosine is converted to tyramine by treating it with the decarboxylase present in an acetone-powder preparation of S. faecalis. The tyramine is then separated from the urine and assayed by the nitrosonaphthol method. Examples of the application of this technic to human urine are presented.
