Pediatrics, 1978
Tests for phenylketonuria (PKU) using 10% ferric chloride solution dropped on wet diapers are done frequently. Recently, I have found a number of false-positive PKU tests, as have my colleagues. Some of these false-positive tests show up as green spots that appear immediately.

Sources of Error in Testing for PKU
Pediatrics, 1968It is routine practice in our office to test wet diapers with fernic chloride 10% solution at 1-and 2-month well-baby visits. We also do this on all new patients who are 1 year or less as part of the first visit routine. We frequently see abnormal colors from certain urinary constituents, such as the by-products of aspirin metabolism, or from other ...

Molecular analysis of PKU in Ireland
Acta Paediatrica, 1994Classical phenylketonuria (PKU: McKusick No. 261600) is caused by mutations occurring at the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) locus on chromosome 12 and has a prevalence in Ireland of 1 in 4500. We examined 304 independent alleles from 350 patients for the presence of six mutations and have characterized VNTR alleles within the minisatellite region 3 ...

The history of PKU is one of science in the discovery of an inborn error of metabolism and a chemical cause of mental retardation; and also one of technology with the development of methods to prevent disease. PKU is the classic example of success in the prevention of a genetic disease.

THE DANGERS OF A SUCCESSFUL PKU PROGRAM
Pediatrics, 1967WHEN the concept of mass screening of newborns for phenylalaninemia was first proposed, many voices were raised in protest. Chief among the objections listed was the impracticability of searching for a disease so rare that only one such infant would be found in 20,000 tested.
