Lemma 10.105.5. Let A be a Noetherian universally catenary ring. Any A-algebra essentially of finite type over A is universally catenary.
Proof. If B is a finite type A-algebra, then B is Noetherian by Lemma 10.31.1. Any finite type B-algebra is a finite type A-algebra and hence catenary by our assumption that A is universally catenary. Thus B is universally catenary. Any localization of B is universally catenary by Lemma 10.105.4 and this finishes the proof. \square
