LP18445-4 N-acetyl-L-aspartate
N-acetyl-L-aspartate (NAA) normally occurs in high concentrations in the brain tissue, and its function is not well-understood. An elevation of NAA in urine and plasma is a marker of Canavan disease, a rare genetic disorder characterized by hypotonia, severe cognitive delay, blindness, demyelination and leukodystrophy, and typically death by 18 months of life. Canavan disease is caused by a mutation in the ASPA gene, which encodes aspartoacylase, the enzyme that metabolizes NAA. [OMIM: 271900]

LP7238-1 Body fld
The LOINC "Body fld" System represents body fluids other than serum, plasma, blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. When a LOINC term with the System "Body fld" is used, the specific specimen source or body fluid type should be reported elsewhere with the result. Where more specific terms for pleural, peritoneal, synovial fluid, etc. exist, we encourage you to use the more specific terms. In contrast to "Body fld", the System "Asp" in LOINC represents the fluid withdrawn during an aspiration procedure from an abnormal collection of fluid, such as from an abscess or cyst. "Asp" is used for abnormal fluid collections that are aspirated, while "Body fld" is used for named body fluids, such as synovial fluid or peritoneal fluid, that are not inherently pathologic.
