ARSA activity was estimated as mu/mg protein in leukocytes, using 4-nitrocatechol sulfate. In brief: 0.25 mM sodium pyrophosphate was utilized to inactivate arylsulfatase B(ARSB). Then, the amount of sulfate released was measured by the absorbance of free 4-nitrocatechol at 515 nm on a spectrophotometer (Beckmann Coulter, Brea, CA, USA), which is associated with sulfatase activity [17 ].
