A new fluorogenic substrate, 4 methylumbelliferyl beta-D-6-sulphogalactoside, was used for the assay of galactose-6-sulphate sulphatase activity in chorionic villi, cultured villus cells, and amniocytes. The fluorometric assay is much more convenient than the conventional assay using radiolabelled, sulphated oligosaccharides. Both

4-Methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside-6-sulphate was synthesized and used for the determination of galactose-6-sulphate sulphatase activity. Fibroblasts and leucocytes from 12 different Morquio A patients, showed 0.0-2.7% of mean normal galactose-6-sulphate sulphatase activity. Heterozygotes showed intermediate activities. The enzymatic liberation of the fluorochrome from
