Test your
Glutaric acid

Looking for an easy way to test and monitor your Glutaric acid?
It's included in the HealthieOne Disease-Specific test.

Glutaric acid

Explanation: Glutaric acid is a natural compound produced during the breakdown of proteins in the diet. In healthy individuals, glutaric acid is further processed and eliminated from the body. However, when there are defects in this metabolic pathway, glutaric acid can accumulate to high levels in the blood and tissues (glutaric aciduria). 

Test Purpose:

  • Detect glutaric acidemia type I, a rare inherited metabolic disorder
  • Assist in detecting glutaric acidemia type II (GA2), another metabolic disorder affecting energy production.
