What does this test Disorders Of Amino Acid Test identify?

Disorders of Amino Acid Test

The Disorders of Amino Acid Test is a diagnostic test that identifies abnormalities in the levels of amino acids in the blood. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and play a crucial role in various bodily functions.

This test can help identify a range of disorders, including:

  • Phenylketonuria (PKU): A genetic disorder that causes a buildup of phenylalanine in the blood, which can lead to intellectual disabilities and other health problems if left untreated.
  • Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD): A rare genetic disorder that prevents the body from breaking down certain amino acids, leading to a buildup of these acids in the blood and urine.
  • Homocystinuria: A metabolic disorder that leads to high levels of homocysteine in the blood, which can cause a range of health issues including blood clots, vision problems, and skeletal abnormalities.
