Organic Acids Urine Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the Organic Acids Urine Test for AED 820.0. This diagnostic test measures the levels of organic acids in a person’s urine. Organic acids are byproducts of metabolism that are excreted in the urine.
Test Details
The Organic Acids Urine Test is commonly used to detect various metabolic disorders, such as organic acidemias. These are inherited disorders that affect the breakdown of certain amino acids and fatty acids.
During the test, a urine sample is collected from the individual and sent to our laboratory for analysis. Our experts use Gas Chromatography / Mass Spectrometry to measure the concentrations of different organic acids present in the urine.
Abnormal levels of specific organic acids can indicate the presence of a metabolic disorder. However, it is important to note that the interpretation of the test results should be done by a healthcare professional who is familiar with the specific metabolic disorder being tested for.
Test Components and Price
The Organic Acids Urine Test is priced at AED 820.0. The test requires a 15 mL (10 mL min.) aliquot of random urine in a sterile screw capped container without preservative. It should be shipped refrigerated or frozen. Clinical details and drug history must accompany the sample.
Report Delivery and Test Type
Sample collection for this test is available from Monday through Saturday by 9 am. The test results are typically reported within 3 days. The Organic Acids Urine Test falls under the category of inborn errors of metabolism and is commonly ordered by Pediatricians.
Pre Test Information
Clinical details and drug history must accompany the sample for accurate analysis.
Treatment and Management
Once a metabolic disorder is identified through the Organic Acids Urine Test, treatment and management options will vary depending on the specific disorder. It is important to work closely with a healthcare professional to develop an appropriate treatment plan.
Regular monitoring through the Organic Acids Urine Test can help assess the effectiveness of treatment and monitor disease progression.
For more information or to schedule an Organic Acids Urine Test, please consult with your Pediatrician or contact our Genetic Test Department at DNA Labs UAE.
