Microplate Neonatal PKU Screen (S&S 903 paper)
PKU is an inherited metabolic disorder that can lead to mental retardation when untreated. Most PKU cases are the result of a deficiency in the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase. Early detection and treatment of PKU is necessary for the prevention of mental retardation.
The Bio-Rad Microplate Neonatal PKU Screen quantitatively determines phenylalanine levels in neonatal dried blood spot samples as a screen for phenylketonuria.
