Neonatal Phenylalanine
Accurate detection of phenylketonuria (PKU) in newborns Labsystems Diagnostics Neonatal Phenylalanine offers a chemical method with fluorometric detection for the quantitative determination of phenylalanine from blood specimens dried on filter paper. The assay enables early detection of phenylketonuria (PKU) as part of routine newborn screening programs, supporting prompt diagnosis and management.
Overview
Phenylalanine eluted from dried blood spots reacts with ninhydrin to form a fluorescent compound. The fluorescence is enhanced and stabilized by specific reagents before measurement, ensuring accurate and consistent quantification. The method delivers reliable results from minimal sample volumes and integrates smoothly into high-throughput screening workflows.
