The study compares the enzymatic activity of transaminases in consumers of native Lutuku alcohol and non-consumers.Methods: This is a case-control study involving 40 Lutuku-consuming and healthy subjects. The enzymatic activities of GOT and GTP were performed using standard clinical chemical methods developed by BIOLAB.Results: The rate of TGO and TGP are 4 to 5 times higher in consumer… Show more
