Purine and pyrimidine compounds were analyzed by capillary electrophoresis in urine of patients with inherited disorders purine and pyrimidine metabolism. Two separation of systems (alkaline-anionic and acid-cationic mode) have been compared. The use of a strongly acidic background electrolyte (pH 1.8) improves the selectivity and informative pithiness of the method. A combination of both anionic and cationic modes increases the reliability of diagnosis in hereditary disorders.
