Abstract

Urinary glycosaminoglycan (GAG) levels were measured by the Whiteman assay in five monkeys following induction of an E. coli urinary tract infection. Urinary GAG levels rose as the infection developed and returned to baseline levels as the infection resolved. Elevated urinary GAG levels may be a marker for the tissue injury incurred by such infections and may offer insight into their pathophysiology.
