Amino Acids Quantitative Blood Test – 10 Amino Acids Panel
Comprehensive Metabolic Health Assessment
The Amino Acids Quantitative Blood Test is a sophisticated diagnostic tool that provides detailed analysis of 10 crucial amino acids in your bloodstream. This advanced panel utilizes cutting-edge tandem mass spectrometry technology to deliver precise measurements, enabling healthcare providers to assess metabolic function, detect nutritional imbalances, and identify inherited metabolic disorders with exceptional accuracy.
What This Test Measures
Our comprehensive 10-amino acid panel evaluates the following essential biomarkers:
- Alanine – Key indicator of glucose metabolism and energy production
- Arginine – Essential for nitric oxide production and vascular health
- Citrulline – Important marker for urea cycle disorders
- Glycine – Critical neurotransmitter and detoxification agent
- Leucine – Branched-chain amino acid vital for muscle health
- Methionine – Sulfur-containing amino acid essential for methylation
- Ornithine – Central component of the urea cycle
- Phenylalanine – Precursor to tyrosine and neurotransmitters
- Tyrosine – Foundation for thyroid hormones and catecholamines
- Valine – Branched-chain amino acid supporting muscle function
Who Should Consider This Test?
Clinical Indications and Symptoms
This test is particularly valuable for individuals experiencing:
- Unexplained neurological symptoms or developmental delays
- Metabolic abnormalities detected in routine screening
- Family history of inborn errors of metabolism
- Nutritional deficiencies or malabsorption issues
- Unexplained fatigue, muscle weakness, or growth concerns
- Suspected amino acid transport disorders
- Monitoring treatment for known metabolic conditions
- Evaluation of dietary adequacy and protein metabolism
Benefits of Amino Acid Testing
Early Detection and Prevention
Comprehensive amino acid profiling offers numerous advantages:
- Early Diagnosis – Identifies metabolic disorders before severe symptoms develop
- Personalized Treatment – Guides targeted nutritional and medical interventions

- Metabolic Monitoring – Tracks treatment effectiveness and disease progression
- Comprehensive Assessment – Provides holistic view of protein metabolism and nutritional status
Understanding Your Test Results
Interpretation Guidelines
Your amino acid profile results will be carefully analyzed by our expert genetic specialists:
- Normal Ranges – Results within established reference ranges indicate balanced amino acid metabolism
- Elevated Levels – May suggest metabolic blockages, enzyme deficiencies, or specific genetic disorders
- Reduced Levels – Could indicate nutritional deficiencies, malabsorption, or increased metabolic demands
- Pattern Analysis – Specific combinations of abnormal values help identify particular metabolic pathways affected
- Clinical Correlation – Results are interpreted in context with your symptoms, medical history, and other laboratory findings
All abnormal findings are reviewed by our board-certified genetic specialists who provide detailed explanations and recommendations for follow-up care.
