Aminoacids Qualitative CSF

Proteins are constructed from amino acids and are present all over the body. Many inborn defects of amino acid metabolism have been documented. Genetic or early childhood amino acid abnormalities are the most common. The increase or deficiency of one or more amino acids in biological fluids causes clinical signs and symptoms.

When it comes to a subset of these diseases, such as nonketotic hyperglycinemia and serine biosynthesis abnormalities, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens can be quite helpful in detecting them.

Why done? 

Patients with Inborn errors of amino acid metabolism, namely cases of nonketotic hyperglycemia and Serine biosynthesis deficiencies, can benefit from this test's use. Investigating hereditary metabolic illnesses, especially those causing unexplained seizures, requires CSF amino acid profiling.
