Recommendations For Aminoacids Chromatography Analysis

Biochemical diagnosis of hereditary metabolic diseases requires the detection and simultaneous identification of a large number of compounds, hence the interest in metabolic profiles. Amino acid chromatography allows the identification and quantification of more than forty compounds. As part of the accreditation process for medical biology examinations according to standard NF EN ISO 15189, the group from SFEIM recommends an approach to accredit amino acid chromatography. Validation parameters and recommendations are discussed in this specific framework.
