Description

Amino Acid Profile

The Amino Acid Profile provides a quantitative assessment of amino acids in plasma or serum using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Amino acids play essential roles in protein synthesis, energy metabolism, neurotransmitter production and numerous biochemical pathways.

Analysis of amino acid concentrations can help identify metabolic abnormalities and support the investigation of disorders affecting amino acid metabolism, storage or transport.

Amino Acids Analysed

Alanine, alpha-aminobutyric acid, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, citrulline, cystine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, hydroxyproline, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, ornithine, phenylalanine, proline, sarcosine, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine and valine.

 

This test is carried out in Germany by ArminLabs and their partner lab MVZ Labor Dr. Limbach & Kollegen eGbR. The shipping/courier cost (added at checkout) includes the DHL Medical Express packaging and paperwork for customs.Click here for FAQs
