This blood test measures the levels of various amino acids in your serum. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and play crucial roles in many bodily functions, including growth, repair, and energy production.

Why is this test important?

Abnormal amino acid levels can indicate inherited metabolic disorders, kidney disease, liver disease, or nutritional deficiencies. This test helps diagnose these conditions and guide appropriate treatment plans.

How to Prepare

Fasting for 8-12 hours is typically required before this blood test. Please consult your doctor for specific instructions.
