Use of tartaric acid resistance of beta-glucuronidase for the characterization of cancer cells in pleural effusions.

Tartaric acid was shown to have an inhibiting effect on beta-glucuronidase staining in mesothelial cells and macrophages but not in malignant cells in pleural effusions. Staining for beta-glucuronidase with tartaric acid inhibition is thus suggested for the differentiation of cancer cells from mesothelial cells and macrophages in effusions.[1]
