Test Details
The quantitative urine test for amino acids measures the levels of 45 different amino acids in the urine. This test is also referred to as a full panel test because it provides a comprehensive analysis of amino acid levels in the urine. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and play a crucial role in various biological processes in the body. Abnormal levels of amino acids in the urine can indicate certain metabolic disorders or kidney dysfunction. The test involves collecting a urine sample and sending it to a laboratory for analysis. The laboratory will use specialized techniques, such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), to measure the concentrations of the 45 amino acids in the urine. The results of the test can help healthcare providers diagnose and monitor conditions such as phenylketonuria, maple syrup urine disease, cystinuria, and various other metabolic disorders. It is important to note that the interpretation of the test results should be done by a healthcare professional who is familiar with the patient’s medical history and symptoms. The test may also require specific dietary restrictions or medication adjustments prior to the collection of the urine sample.
